Show answer
Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The magnetic field are concentric circle at point of a current carrying circular conductor direction of the magnetic field of every section of the circular loop can be found by using the right hand thumb rule .if you curl your right hand fingers in direction of magnetic field your thumb will point in the direction of the current flow.

Consider an experiment where Electric current is flowing in a wire. It is observed that clockwise magnetic field is produced around the wire. A teacher decides to reverse the direction of source battery which results in reversal of electrical current. What will be the effect on magnetic field?

physics electromagnetism magnetic field due to a circular current carrying conductor magnetic field produced in a circular loop field due to a current carrying coil oersted experiment

  1. The magnitude of magnetic moment now diminishes.

  2. The magnetic moment does not change.

  3. The magnitude of $\bar B$ at $(0,0, z), z$>>R increases.

  4. The magnitude of $\bar B$ at $(0, 0, z), z$>>R is unchanged.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

For a circular loop of radius R carrying current, I placed in $x-y$ plane, the magnetic moment $M= I\,\,\pi R^2$. It acts perpendicular to the loop i.e., along with the z-direction. When half of the current loop is bent in y-z plane, the magnetic moment due to half current loop in x-y plane,$ M _1 = I \left (\dfrac {\pi R^2}{2} \right )$ acting along z-direction.
Magnetic moment due to half current loop in y-z plane,$ M _2 = I \left (\dfrac {\pi R^2}{2} \right )$ along x-direction.
Effective magnetic moment due to entire bent current loop,
$M'$ =$\sqrt{{M _{1}^{2}}+ {M _{2}^{2}}} $=$\sqrt {{\left (\dfrac{I \pi R^2}{2} \right )^2}+{\left (\dfrac{I \pi R^2}{2} \right )^2}}$
$M'=\dfrac{I\pi R^2}{2}\sqrt2 <M$
i.e., magnetic moment diminishes.
