A regular hexagone of side a. A wire of length 24 a is coiled on that hexagone. If current in hexagone is I, then find the magnetic moment.

Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
A.
Step-by-step solution
Let number of turns
Magnetic moment, 4IA
=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4} a^2+\sqrt{3} a^2+\frac{\sqrt{3} a^2}{4}=\frac{6 \sqrt{3} a^2}{4}=\frac{3 \sqrt{3} a^2}{2}=4 I\left(\frac{3 \sqrt{3} a^2}{2}\right)=6 \sqrt{3} a^2$
