AIIMS 2000 Physics Magnetic Field of a Loop MCQ Question
Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 12
The earth’s magnetic induction at a certain point is 7 × 10⁻⁵ Wb/m². This is to be annulled by the magnetic induction at the centre of a circular conducting loop of radius 5 cm. The required current in the loop is
A
0.56 Å
B
5.6 Å
C
0.28 Å
D
2.8 Å
Correct Answer
Option B
Detailed Explanation
Using the formula for the magnetic field at the center of a loop, B = (μ₀I)/(2r), and setting it equal to the earth's magnetic field, the required current is calculated to be 0.56 Å.
