Current passing through a conductor is increased from 10 A to 15 A. This decreases the strength of the magnetic field produced by the conductor. Is this true or false?

Take into account that due to the Ampere's law, there is a proportional relation between magnetic field generated by a conductor and the current.

Then, if the current in the conductor increases the magnetic field stregth also increases.

Hence, the given statement is false.
