Easy MCQ +4 / -1 PYQ · JEE Mains 2023

The magnetic moments associated with two closely wound circular coils $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ of radius $\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{A}}=10$ $\mathrm{cm}$ and $\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{B}}=20 \mathrm{~cm}$ respectively are equal if : (Where $\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}}, \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{A}}$ and $\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{B}}, \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{B}}$ are number of turn and current of $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ respectively)

  1. A $$4 \mathrm{~N}_{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{A}}=\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{B}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{B}}$$
  2. B $$2 \mathrm{~N}_{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{A}}=\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{B}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{B}}$$
  3. C $\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}}=2 \mathrm{~N}_{\mathrm{B}}$
  4. D $$\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{A}}=4 \mathrm{~N}_{\mathrm{B}} \mathrm{I}_{\mathrm{B}}$$ Correct answer

Solution

<p>$M_A=M_B$</p> <p>${I_A}{N_A}\left( {\pi r_A^2} \right) = {I_B}{N_B}\left( {\pi r_B^2} \right)$</p> <p>${I_A}{N_A} = 4{I_B}{N_B}$</p>
