Magnetism Question 216

Question: The effective length of a magnet is 31.4 cm and its pole strength is 0.5 Am. The magnetic moment, if it is bent in the form of a semicircle will be

[DPMT 2003]

Options:

A) $ 0.1,,Am^{2} $

B) $ 0.01,,Am^{2} $

C) $ 0.2,,Am^{2} $

D) $ 1.2,,Am^{2} $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

Similar to solution (1) New magnetic moment $ M’=\frac{2M}{\pi }=\frac{2mL}{\pi }=\frac{2\times 0.5\times 31.4\times {{10}^{-2}}}{3.14}=0.1,amp\times m^{2} $
