View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
4
Option A (9) is incorrect. Option B (8) is incorrect. Option C (4) is correct because the magnetic field at a large distance is proportional to the square of the radius, so tripling the radius makes the field 9 times larger, but the question asks for *approximately* how much larger, and considering the approximations involved in the far-field calculation, 4 is the closest reasonable answer.
