The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the magnetic dipole moment of both the square loop and the circular loop. ### Step 1: Understanding the Magnetic Dipole Moment of the Square Loop The magnetic dipole moment \( m \) of a square loop carrying a current \( I \) can be expressed using the formula: \[ m = n \cdot I \cdot A \] where: - \( n \) is the number of turns (for a single loop, \( n = 1 \)), - \( I \) is the current, - \( A \) is the area of the loop. For a square loop with side length \( A \): \[ A = A^2 \] Thus, the magnetic dipole moment becomes: \[ m = I \cdot A^2 \] Let's denote this as Equation (1). ### Step 2: Finding the Magnetic Dipole Moment of the Circular Loop When the square loop is transformed into a circular loop with the same perimeter, we need to find the radius \( r \) of the circular loop. The perimeter of the square loop is: \[ \text{Perimeter of square} = 4A \] The circumference of the circular loop is: \[ \text{Circumference of circle} = 2\pi r \] Setting these equal gives: \[ 4A = 2\pi r \] From this, we can solve for \( r \): \[ r = \frac{4A}{2\pi} = \frac{2A}{\pi} \] ### Step 3: Area of the Circular Loop The area \( A' \) of the circular loop is given by: \[ A' = \pi r^2 \] Substituting \( r = \frac{2A}{\pi} \): \[ A' = \pi \left(\frac{2A}{\pi}\right)^2 = \pi \cdot \frac{4A^2}{\pi^2} = \frac{4A^2}{\pi} \] ### Step 4: Magnetic Dipole Moment of the Circular Loop Now, substituting the area \( A' \) into the formula for the magnetic dipole moment of the circular loop \( m' \): \[ m' = I \cdot A' = I \cdot \frac{4A^2}{\pi} \] ### Step 5: Relating \( m' \) to \( m \) From Equation (1), we know that \( m = I \cdot A^2 \). Thus, we can express \( m' \) in terms of \( m \): \[ m' = \frac{4}{\pi} m \] ### Conclusion The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of the circular loop is: \[ m' = \frac{4m}{\pi} \] ### Final Answer The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of the circular loop will be \( \frac{4m}{\pi} \). ---

To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the magnetic dipole moment of both the square loop and the circular loop. ### Step 1: Understanding the Magnetic Dipole Moment of the Square Loop The magnetic dipole moment \( m \) of a square loop carrying a current \( I \) can be expressed using the formula: \[ m = n \cdot I \cdot A \] where: ...
