Problem

A single point charge produces magnetic field magnitude B0B_0 at point R while moving at speed vv, with its velocity perpendicular to the line joining the charge and R. Determine the new magnetic field magnitude at R, expressed in terms of B0B_0, if the charge’s speed is doubled at the same time that its distance from R is doubled.
