Question
A proton has a magnetic field due to its spin on its axis. The field is similar to that created by a circular current loop of radius 0.650x10-15 m with a current of 1.05x104 A. Find the maximum torque on a proton in a 2.50 T field:
Correct Answer
Option B is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
mu=I(pi r2)=1.394x10-26 A.m2. tau=mu B=3.48x10-26 N.m.
Hint
mu=I(pi r2)=1.394x10-26 A.m2.
