When a parallel-plate capacitor with air between the plates is connected to a battery and fully charged, if the space between the plates is then filled with a dielectric material, how does this affect the electric field between the plates?

A long, straight wire carries a steady current I and is bent into a semicircular loop of radius R; if the magnetic field at the center of curvature of the loop is BBB, what would be the magnetic field at this point if the wire were instead shaped into a full circular loop carrying the same current?
