Charge q is uniformly spread on a thin ring of radius R. The ring rotates about its axis with a uniform frequency f Hz. The magnitude of magnetic induction at the centre of the ring is
- 0 qf2 R
- 0 qf2R
- 0 q2fR
- 0 q2 fR
Answer
(2) 0 qf2R
Solution
The rotating ring is equivalent to a circular current:
I = qT = qf
Magnetic field at the centre of a circular loop:
B = 0 I2R = 0 qf2R
Answer: (2)
