Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Biot-Savart's law gives us the expression for the magnetic field strength of an infinitesimal current element \(I(dl)\) of a current-carrying conductor only.
Statement II: Biot-Savart's law is analogous to Coulomb's inverse square law of charge \(q,\) with the former being related to the field produced by a scalar source, \(Idl\) while the latter being produced by a vector source, \(q.\)
 
1. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct.
2. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
3. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
4. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
