Consider an infinitely long, thin, straight current carrying wire. The magnetic field created by the current in its proximity can be calculated using the Biot-Savart law.
To estimate the magnetic field at a point P, consider a small current element of length "dx", at a distance "x" from the origin. The length of the line joining "dx" and "P" can be estimated using the Pythagorean theorem.
The angle subtended by the current element with the line joining P can be expressed as a over r.
Substituting these terms gives the expression for the magnetic field created by the current element.
Since the wire is infinitely long, integrating the equation from zero to infinity gives the expression for the total magnetic field at P, produced by the current carrying wire.
Following the right-hand rule, if the thumb points along the current direction, then the fingers curl along the direction of the magnetic field lines. These lines are concentric around the wire, and their magnitude decreases with increasing distance, which increases the space between the field lines.
Considere un cable recto infinitamente largo que lleva una corriente I. El campo magnético en el punto P, a una distancia a del origen, puede ser calculado utilizando la ley de Biot-Savart.

Considere un elemento de corriente dx a una distancia x del origen. El elemento de corriente forma un ángulo θ con la línea que une dx y P. Utilizando el teorema de Pitágoras para expresar la distancia entre el elemento de corriente y el punto, el campo magnético debido al elemento de corriente en el punto P puede ser estimado utilizando la Ecuación 1.
El cable es simétrico alrededor del origen. Por lo tanto, integrando la Ecuación 1 en los límites desde cero hasta infinito, se obtiene la ecuación para el campo magnético en función de la corriente y de la distancia del punto P al cable.
Las líneas de campo magnético del cable infinito son circulares y centradas en el cable, y son idénticas en cada plano perpendicular al cable. Dado que la intensidad del campo disminuye con la distancia del cable, el espaciado de las líneas de campo también aumenta correspondientemente con la distancia.
La regla de la mano derecha indica la dirección de las líneas de campo magnético. Si el pulgar apunta a lo largo de la corriente, los dedos se enrollan alrededor del cable de la misma manera que el campo magnético. Por lo tanto, el campo apunta hacia el interior de la página en el punto P. Los campos magnéticos debido a todos los elementos de corriente tienen la misma dirección.
