1. ⇒  (MHT CET 2023 12th May Evening Shift )

A coil of ' n ' turns and radius ' R ' carries a current ' I '. It is unwound and rewound again to make another coil of radius ( R 3 ) , current remaining the same. The ratio of magnetic moment of the new coil to that of original coil is

A. 3 : 1

B. 1 : 3

C. 9 : 1

D. 1 : 9

Correct Option is (B)

As the length of the wire remains the same, we can write

N 1 2 π R = N 2 × 2 π R 3 N 1 = N 2 3 N 2 = 3 N 1

 Magnetic moment of coil  μ =  NIA  μ 1 = N 1 I A 1 = N 1 I π R 2 μ 2 = N 2 I A 2 = 3 N 1 I π R 2 9 μ 2 μ 1 = 3 N 1 I π R 2 9 × 1 N 1 I π R 2 = 1 3

The magnetic moment of a current (I) carrying circular coil of radius ' r ' and number of turns ' n ' depends on

A. n only

B. I only

C. r only

D. n , I and r

Correct Option is (D)

m = nI A   m = nI ( π r 2 )

Magnetic moment of revolving electron of charge (e) and mass (m) in terms of angular momentum (L) of electron is :

A. e L 8 m

B. eL 4   m

C. eL 2   m

D. eL m

Correct Option is (C)

The magnetic moment μ associated with the angular momentum L of a revolving electron is given by :

μ = e 2 m L

The negative sign indicates the direction of the magnetic moment is opposite to the direction of angular momentum. However, for the sake of magnitude, we'll focus on :

μ = e L 2 m

So, the correct answer is Option C : e L 2 m .

The magnetic field at the centre of a current carrying circular coil of area 'A' is 'B'. The magnetic moment of the coil is ( μ 0 = permeability of free space)

A. 2 BA 3 / 2 μ 0 π

B. BA 3 / 2 μ 0 π

C. μ 0 π 2 BA 2

D. 2 BA 2 μ 0 π

Correct Option is (A)

The relation between magnetic moment 'M' of revolving electron and principle quantum number 'n' is

A. M 1 n

B. M n

C. M n 2

D. M n 3

Correct Option is (B)

M = enh 4 π m e
