    Magnetic field at the centre of a circular loop of area A is B. The magnetic moment of the loop will be

    A) \[\frac{B{{A}^{2}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}\pi }\]                                   

    B) \[\frac{B{{A}^{3/2}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}\pi }\]

    C) \[\frac{B{{A}^{3/2}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\pi }^{1/2}}}\]                                            

    D) \[\frac{2B{{A}^{3/2}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\pi }^{1/2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Magnetic field at the centre of circular loop \[B=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}}{4\pi }\frac{2\pi I}{r}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}I}{2r}\] \[I=\frac{2Br}{{{\mu }_{0}}}\] Also, \[A=\pi {{r}^{2}}\] or \[r={{\left( \frac{A}{\pi } \right)}^{1/2}}\] Magnetic moment, \[M=IA=\frac{2Br}{{{\mu }_{0}}}A\]  \[=\frac{2BA}{{{\mu }_{0}}}\times {{\left( \frac{A}{\pi } \right)}^{1/2}}\] \[=\frac{2B{{A}^{3/2}}}{{{\mu }_{0}}{{\pi }^{1/2}}}\]
