Moving Charges and Magnetism

  1. An electron moving in a circular orbit of radius r makes n rotations per second. The magnetic field produced at the centre has magnitude:​​
    1. Zero ​
    2. μ0n²e
      r
    3. μ0ne
      2r
    4. μ0ne
      2πr
Correct Option: C

Radius of circular orbit = r ​
No. of rotations per second = n
​i.e., T = 1/n

​Magnetic field at its centre, Bc =? ​
As we know, current ​

i =
e
=
e
= en
T(l/n)

= equivalent current ​Magnetic field at the centre of circular orbit, ​
