The correct Answer is:
To analyze the given statements A and R regarding the magnetic moment of a current-carrying planar loop, we will break down the solution step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Statement A**: - Statement A claims that "The magnetic moment of a current-carrying planar loop does depend on the space of the loop." - The magnetic moment \( \mu \) of a current-carrying loop is given by the formula: \[ \mu = I \cdot A \] where \( I \) is the current flowing through the loop and \( A \) is the area of the loop. - Since the area \( A \) depends on the shape (or space) of the loop, this statement is **correct**. 2. **Understanding Statement R**: - Statement R claims that "The magnetic moment is a vector quantity." - The magnetic moment is indeed a vector quantity. It has both magnitude and direction. The direction of the magnetic moment vector is determined by the right-hand rule, which states that if you curl the fingers of your right hand in the direction of the current, your thumb points in the direction of the magnetic moment. - Therefore, this statement is also **correct**. 3. **Checking the Relationship Between A and R**: - We need to determine if R is the correct explanation of A. - Statement A discusses the dependence of the magnetic moment on the area (space) of the loop, while Statement R describes the nature of the magnetic moment as a vector quantity. - Since these two statements address different aspects (one about dependence on area and the other about being a vector), R does not provide a correct explanation for A. 4. **Conclusion**: - Both statements A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation for A. - Therefore, the final answer is that both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A. ### Final Answer: Both A and R are correct, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
