moving-charges-and-magnetism Question 46

Question: Q. 2. (a) Write the expression for the equivalent magnetic moment of a planer current loop of area $A$, having $N$ turns and carrying a current $i$. Use the expression to find the magnetic dipole moment of a revolving electron.

(b) A circular loop of radius $r$, having $N$ turns and carrying current $I$, is kept in the $X Y$ plane. It is then subjected to a uniform magnetic field $B=B_{x} \hat{I}+$ $B_{y} \hat{J}+B_{z} \hat{k}$. Obtain expression for the magnetic potential energy of the coil-magnetic field system.

Show Answer

Solution:

Ans. (a) The equivalent magnetic moment is given by $\quad \mu=\mathrm{NiA} \quad 1 / 2$ The direction of $\mu$ is perpendicular to the plane of current carrying loop. It is directed along the direction of advance of a right-handed screw rotated along the direction of flow of current. $1 / 2$ Derivation of expression for $\mu$ of electron revolving around a nucleus

(b) for the loop,

$$ \vec{\mu}=\mathrm{N}\left(\mu r^{2}\right) i( \pm \hat{k}) \quad 1 / 2 $$

Magnetic potential energy $=\vec{\mu} \cdot \vec{B}$

$=N\left(\mu r^{2}\right) i( \pm \hat{k}) \cdot\left(B_{x} \hat{i}+B_{y} \hat{j}+B_{z} \hat{k}\right)$

$= \pm r^{2} N I B_{z}$.

Detailed Answer :

(a) The equivalent magnetic moment is given by $\mu=N i A$ The direction of $\mu$ is perpendicular to the plane of current carrying loop. It in directed along the direction of advance of a right handed screw rotated along the direction of flow of current. $1 / 2$ Derivation :

Let us consider an atom with an electron revolving around the nucleus.

Charge on electron is $e$. Let its mass be $m$.

Radius of electron’s orbit is $r$.

Area of electron’s orbit is $A=\pi r^{2}$

Magnetic dipole moment of the atom is,

$$ \mu=i A N $$

The current $i$ is given by,

$$ i=\frac{e}{T} $$
