State Ampere’s circuital law.
State Ampere's circuital law, expressing it in the integral form.
Solution 1
Ampere’s circuital law states that the line integral of magnetic field induction `vecB` around a closed path in vacuum is equal to μ0 times the total current I passing through the surface, i.e. `ointvecB.vec(dl)=mu_0I`
Solution 2
Ampere’s Circuital Law states that the circulation of the resultant magnetic field along a closed, plane curve is equal to μo times the total current crossing the area bounded by the closed curve, provided the electric field inside the loop remains constant.
In the above illustration, the Ampere’s Circuital Law can be written as follows:
`ointvecB.vec(dl)=mu_0i`
where, i=|i1−i2|

In Ampere's \[\oint \vec{B} \cdot d \vec{l} = \mu_0 i,\] the current outside the curve is not included on the right hand side. Does it mean that the magnetic field B calculated by using Ampere's law, gives the contribution of only the currents crossing the area bounded by the curve?
