The magnetic dipole moment of a current loop is independent of

  1. A magnetic field in which it is lying
  2. B number of turns
  3. C area of the loop
  4. D current in the loop
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) magnetic field in which it is lying

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Magnetic dipole moment of a current is given by
\(\mathrm{M}=\text { NIA }\)
where \(\mathrm{N}=\) number of turns
\(I=\) current in a loop
\(\mathrm{A}=\) area of the loop
From the above relation it is clear that magnetic dipole moment of a current loop is independent of the magnetic field in which it is lying.
