A long thin magnet of magnetic moment M is bent into a semi-circle. The decrease in the magnetic moment is
Options
- A2 M π
- Bπ M 2
- CM π - 2 π
- DM 2 - π 2
Correct answer
C. M π - 2 π
Step-by-step solution
Magnetic length is the minimum distance between the north pole and the south pole, which is decreased in the second case. M ′ = 2 M π , decrease in magnetic moment = M - 2 M π
