A closely wound solenoid of 750 turns and area of cross section of 5 x 10-4 m2 carries a current of 3.0 A. Its associated magnetic moment is
A
4.12 J T -1
B
3.12 J T-1
C
2.12 J T-1
D
1.13 J T-1
Answer
1.13 J T-1
Explanation
Solution
: Here, n = 750 turns,
Then, magnetic moment,
m=nIA=750×3×5×10−4=11250×10−4
=1.125 J T−1
=1.13JT−1 along the axis of solenoid.
