A flat circular coil, carrying a current, has a magnetic moment `mu`

A

`mu` has only magnitude, it does not have direction

B

The direction of `mu` is along the normal to the plane of the coil

C

The direction of `mu` depends on the direction of the current flow

D

The direction of `mu` does not change if the current in the coil is reversed

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B,C

`vec(mu)=NIAhat(n)` unit vector perpendicular to `vec(A)`
