MCQ
A horizontal circular loop carries a current that looks clockwise when viewed from above. It is replaced by an equivalent magnetic dipole consisting of a south pole S and a north pole N:
  • A
    The line SN should be along a diameter of the loop.
  • B
    The line SN should be perpendicular to the plane of the loop.
  • C
    The south pole should be slow the loop.
  • D
    The north pole should be below the loop.
✓

Answer

  1. The line SN should be perpendicular to the plane of the loop.
  2. The north pole should be below the loop.

A horizontal circular loop carrying current in clockwise direction acts like the south pole of a magnet. Hence, the south pole of the magnet coincides with the loop.

Now, when the loop carrying current in clockwise direction is viewed from above, it looks like the magnetic lines of force are entering the loop thus it acts like south pole of a magnet. And if we view from below the loop then it appears that magnetic lines of force are leaving the loop. Hence, the north pole should be below the loop.
