A loop carrying current II lies in the x−yx−y plane as shown in the figure. The unit vector ˆk^k is coming out of the plane of the paper. The magnetic moment of the current loop is


Solution:
Magnetic moment of a current carrying loop →M=NI→A→M=NI→A
Here N=1,A=a2+2Ï€(a2)2=a2[1+Ï€2]N=1,A=a2+2Ï€(a2)2=a2[1+Ï€2]
From Screw law, direction of mm is outward or in +ve z-direction.
∴→M=Ia2[1+π2]ˆk∴→M=Ia2[1+π2]^k

Here N=1,A=a2+2Ï€(a2)2=a2[1+Ï€2]N=1,A=a2+2Ï€(a2)2=a2[1+Ï€2]
From Screw law, direction of mm is outward or in +ve z-direction.
∴→M=Ia2[1+π2]ˆk∴→M=Ia2[1+π2]^k
