AIIMS 2019 Physics Magnetic Dipole Moment MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12
The magnetic dipole moment is calculated as, M = i × πr² = (2e/2πr) × v × πr² = 2evr/2 = evr
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
The magnetic dipole moment is derived from the formula , where is the current and is the radius of the loop. In this case, substituting with (where is the elementary charge) leads to , indicating that the dipole moment is directly proportional to the charge , the velocity , and the radius .
Options (1), (3), and (4) do not accurately reflect the relationship derived from the equations, as they either misrepresent the variables involved or fail to capture the proportionality of to . Understanding this relationship is crucial for analyzing magnetic effects in charged particle systems.
