An iron rod of volume 10−3m3{10}^{- 3}{m}^{3} and relative permeability 10001000 is placed as core in a solenoid with10turnscm−110turns{cm}^{- 1} . If a current of 0.5A0 . 5A is passed through the solenoid, then the magnetic moment of the rod will be :

Options

  1. A50×102Am250 \times {10}^{2}{Am}^{2}
  2. B5×102Am25 \times {10}^{2}{Am}^{2}
  3. C500×102Am2500 \times {10}^{2}{Am}^{2}
  4. D0.5×102Am20 . 5 \times {10}^{2}{Am}^{2}

Correct answer

B. 5×102Am25 \times {10}^{2}{Am}^{2}

Step-by-step solution

Given,

Volume of iron rod is, V=10−3m3V = {10}^{- 3}{m}^{3}

Relative permeability, μr=1000{\mu}_{r} = 1000

No of turns per unit length of solenoid is, n=Nl=10turnscm−1=1000turnsm−1n = \dfrac{N}{l} = 10turns{cm}^{- 1} = 1000turns{m}^{- 1}

Current through the solenoid is, i=0.5Ai = 0 . 5A

Magnetic moment of an iron core solenoid is given by,

M=(μr−1)NiAM = ( {\mu}_{r} - 1 ) NiA

⇒M=(μr−1)NiVl=(μr−1)NliV⇒ M = \left({\mu}_{r} - 1\right)Ni\dfrac{V}{l} = \left({\mu}_{r} - 1\right)\dfrac{N}{l}iV

⇒M=(1000−1)×1000×0.5×10−3⇒ M = \left(1000 - 1\right) \times 1000 \times 0 . 5 \times {10}^{- 3}

⇒M=499.5≈500Am2⇒ M = 499 . 5 \approx 500A{m}^{2}
