Bar Magnet & Magnetic Moment

A charged particle (charge q) is moving in a circle of radius R with uniform speed v. The associated magnetic moment μ\mu is given by

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. Equivalent current I=qT=qv2πRI = \dfrac{q}{T} = \dfrac{qv}{2\pi R}.
  2. Area of the orbit A=πR2A = \pi R^2.
  3. μ=IA=qv2πR⋅πR2=qvR2\mu = IA = \dfrac{qv}{2\pi R}\cdot \pi R^2 = \dfrac{qvR}{2}
  4. So the answer is (d) qvR/2qvR/2.
