One way to handle this is to consider the superposition of the field of aany
solid wire and the field of a wire the size of the hole, with current
running in the opposite direction. Ampere's law gives you the field at
location for each of these current distributions; add them vectorially.
How do you do that in a way that upholds conservation of charge?
As another way of saying the same thing, how do you make the current
in the hole become part of a complete circuit?
