Assertion :A planar circular loop of area and carrying current is equivalent to magnetic dipole of dipole moment .Reason :At large distances, magnetic field of circular loop and magnetic dipole is same.

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

Magnetic field due to a circular loop carrying current I is given as where, radius of loop distance from centre of loop For large distances, , where magnetic dipole moment of current loop which is equal to the magnetic field due to magnetic dipole. Thus, the current loop can be considered as a magnetic dipole.
