For a circular coil magnetic moment ...

For a circular coil magnetic moment is M r is the radius and L is the length of the coil then M is proportional to

A

`L^(0)`

B

`N^(1)`

C

`L^(2)`

D

`L^(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

For the circular coil `2pir=L therefore r=(L)/(2pi)` and the magnetic moment
M=IA but `A= pir^(2)`
`I.pir^(2)=I.(L^(2))/(4pi^(2))`
`therefore M=(L^(2)I)/(4pi) therefore M prop L^(2)`
