Biot-Savart Law for Currents

The Biot-Savart Law can be used for more than just single moving charges; it can also be used to calculate the magnetic field for a large number of charges. One notable reason to do so is to find the magnetic field of a portion of a wire where there can be many moving charges. When we use Biot-Savart Law to find the magnetic field of a short wire, we can apply it to a variety of shapes.
