Expert Answer
At the locations, where compass A and compass C are placed as shown in figure, magnetic field lines are parallel to axis of coil.
Note that axis of coil is marked in figure. Field lines are marked in blue colour. compass deflection is shown in red color.
At the location, where compass B is placed, field lines are making some angle with the direction of axis of the coil.
This angle depends on the current passing through the coil.
Hence only deflection of compass-B will change according to the current passing through the coil.
