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.
