A charge $q$ is spread uniformly over an isolated ring of radius $R$. The ring is rotated about its natural axis with an angular velocity $\omega$. Magnetic dipole moment of the ring is
  1. $\frac{q \omega R^2}{2}$
  2. $\frac{q \omega R}{2}$
  3. $q \omega R^2$
  4. $\frac{q \omega}{2R}$

Solution

Magnetic dipole moment $\mathrm{M}=n i \mathrm{~A}, n=1, \mathrm{M}=\mathrm{iA}$ The current in the ring, $i=q / t=q \times f$ Where, $f=$ frequency of charge $\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{i}=q \frac{\omega}{2 \pi}\left(\because \omega=2 \pi f \Rightarrow f=\frac{\omega}{2 \pi}\right) \\ & \therefore \quad \mathrm{M}=q \cdot \frac{\omega}{2 \pi} \cdot \pi \mathrm{R}^2=\frac{1}{2} q \omega R^2 \end{aligned}$
