Application +4 | -1

A uniform conducting wire of length 12a and resistance

R

is wound up as a current carrying coil in the shape of,
1) an equilateral triangle of side '

a

' 2) a square of side '

a

'
The magnetic dipole moments of the coil in each case respectively are

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

\sqrt 3 \,l{a^2}\mathrm{ and 3}\,l{a^2}

Option C (

\sqrt 3 \,l{a^2}\mathrm{ and 3}\,l{a^2}

) is correct because the magnetic dipole moment is calculated based on the area enclosed by the loop and the current, considering the number of turns for both the triangle and the square.

Which of the following statements is not true A current loop in a magnetic field Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): When currents vary with time, Newton’s third law is valid only if momentum carried by the electromagnetic field is taken into account.
Statement (II): Ampere's circuital law does not depend on Biot-Savart’s law.
