A closed current-carrying loop having a ...

A closed current-carrying loop having a current I is having area A. Magnetic moment of this loop is defined as `vec(mu) = vec(IA)` where direction of area vector is towards the observer if current is flowing in anticlockwise direction with respect to the observer. If this loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field `vec(B)`, then torque acting on the loop is given by `vec(tau) = vec(mu) xx vec(B)`. Now answer the following questions:
A uniformly charged insulating ring is rotated in a uniform magnetic field about its own axis, then

A

Ring will experience a magnetic force

B

Ring must be experience a magnetic torque

C

Ring may experience a magnetic torque

D

None of the above

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

A closed current-carrying loop having a current I is having area A. Magnetic moment of this loop is defined as vec(mu) = vec(IA) where direction of area vector is towards the observer if current is flowing in anticlockwise direction with respect to the observer. If this loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field vec(B) , then torque acting on the loop is given by vec(tau) = vec(mu) xx vec(B) . Now answer the following questions: Consider the situation shown in Fig., ring is having a uniformly distributed positive charge. Magnetic field is perpendicular to the axis of ring. Now ring is rotated in anticlockwise direction as seen from left hand side direction of magnetic torque acting on the ring is

A closed current-carrying loop having a current I is having area A. Magnetic moment of this loop is defined as vec(mu) = vec(IA) where direction of area vector is towards the observer if current is flowing in anticlockwise direction with respect to the observer. If this loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field vec(B) , then torque acting on the loop is given by vec(tau) = vec(mu) xx vec(B) . Now answer the following questions: Let ring in the above question is having a radius R and a charge Q is uniformly distributed over it. Ring is rotated with a constant angular velocity (omega) as mentioned above. Torque acting on the ring due to magnetic force is
