I am trying to derive an expression for the magnetic field of charged particles travelling at significant fractions of speed of light [closed]

I tried using lorentz transformation , which gives me correct answer for speed of light c but when i try to input any other values nearby c it becomes a constant B = 10-7 . q/r² ( (v - u)/ 1- uv/c²)
