Why Does a Superconductor Create a Stronger Magnetic Field?

[seriuqs]

Homework Statement

Why does a superconductor have a greater magnetic field because of
a. its interior has no magnetic field
and b.it has no electrical resistance

But a superconductor doesn't have a magnetic field. It actively tries to counteract any changes in the magnetic flux passing through it, leading to the Meissner effect.

By Ampere's law, is not the magnetic field produced by a conductor proportional to the current through it? Would not then a superconductor have a bigger magnetic field compared to a regular conductor due to the lack of electrical resistance?

If you connect the superconductor to the same power source, yes, since you'll certainly short out the power source and make it deliver the maximum amount of current it can manage.
