An insulating rod of length L carries charge q distributed uniformly on it. The rod is pivoted at one end and is rotated at a frequency f about a fixed perpendicular axis. Then the magnetic dipole moment of the system is: |
$\pi qfL^2$ $\frac{1}{3} \pi qfL^2$ $qfL$ $qfL^2$ |
$\frac{1}{3} \pi qfL^2$ |
The correct answer is Option (2) → $\frac{1}{3} \pi qfL^2$ Change on element, $dq=\frac{q}{L}dx$ and, Rod sweeps a circle of radius, $R=\frac{l}{2}$ Current, $di$ (due to frequency f) = $dq×f$ $=\frac{q}{L}fdx$ $M=\int\limits_0^1d$ $M=\int\limits_0^1\frac{q}{L}fdx×\pi x^2$ $=\frac{1}{3} \pi qfL^2$ |
