NEETPhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
STATEMENT-1: When radius of circular loop carrying current is doubled its magnetic moment becomes four times. STATEMENT-2: Magnetic moment depends on area of the loop.
Options
- AStatement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is a correct explanation for Statement - 1.
- BStatement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement - 1.
- CStatement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is False.
- DStatement - 1 is False, Statement - 2 is True.
Correct answer
A. Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is a correct explanation for Statement - 1.
Step-by-step solution
Initially moment ( M = I r ^2 ) And afterwards ( M ^ = I (2 r )^2 ) (=4 I ( r ^2 )=4 M ) So magnetic moment becomes four times when radius is doubled.
