 a) M=NIA=NI\pi r^2

(b) 

Due to the current element dl considered at A the magnetic field at P is-

        dB=\frac{\mu _{0}I}{4\pi }\frac{\left | \vec{dl}\times \vec{r} \right |}{r^{3}}

        Since, dl\times r=dlr

         dB=\frac{\mu _{0}I}{4\pi }\frac{{dl} }{r^{2}}

        dB=\frac{\mu _{0}I}{4\pi }\frac{dl}{(X^{2}+R^{2})}

Consider a current element opposite to A, that is at B, then we can see that the y components of the magnetic, field due to this current element cancel and X component is only present.

So we can say that the net magnetic field is along the X-direction.

        dB_{X}=dB\cos \theta

     The net magnetic field at P is

        B=\int dB_{X}=\int dB\cos \theta

        =\int \frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\frac{Idl}{(X^{2}+R^{2})}\cos \theta

        =\int \frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi }\frac{Idl}{(X^{2}+R^{2})}\frac{R}{(X^{2}+R^{2})^{\frac{1}{2}}}

        =\frac{\mu _{0}I\; R}{4\pi \; (X^{2}+R^{2})^{\frac{3}{2}}}\int dl=\frac{\mu _{0}IR\; 2\pi R}{4\pi (X^{2}+R^{2})^{\frac{3}{2}}}

    B=\frac{\mu _{0}IR^{2}}{2(X^{2}+R^{2})^{\frac{3}{2}}}
