Which factor does not affect the magnetic field produced by a current element according to the Biot-Savart law?
**Ampere's circuital law** ∮ B·dl = μ₀ I_enc explains solenoid field, choosing rectangular Amperian loop with one side inside, one outside where B≈0, giving B L = μ₀ n L I ⇒ B = μ₀ n I. Toroid B = μ₀ N I/(2π r) inside, zero outside, field confined. The Biot-Savart law states dB ∝ (I dl × r/r³) . The field depends on current, length of the element, distance, and angle, but not on the mass of the conductor. Using F = q v B sinθ, F = I l B sinθ, B = μ₀ I/(2π r), B = μ₀ N I/(2R) and τ
