Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 210

Question: Due to the flow of current in a circular loop of radius R, the magnetic induction produced at the centre of the loop is B. The magnetic moment of the loop is $ ({\mu_{0}}=\text{permeability},\text{constant)} $ [MP PET 2000]

Options:

A) $ BR^{3}/2\pi {\mu_{0}} $

B) $ 2\pi BR^{3}/{\mu_{0}} $

C) $ BR^{2}/2\pi {\mu_{0}} $

D) $ 2\pi BR^{2}/{\mu_{0}} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: B

Solution:

$ B=\frac{{\mu_{0}}i}{2R}\Rightarrow i=\frac{B\times 2R}{{\mu_{0}}} $ Now, $ M=i\times A=i\pi R^{2}=\frac{B\times 2R}{{\mu_{0}}}\times \pi R^{2}=\frac{2\pi BR^{3}}{{\mu_{0}}} $
