Bar Magnet: Practice Problem & Solution

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Bar Magnet. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Magnetic moment is \(M = NIA\). For a fixed wire length \(L\), \(r = L/(2\pi N)\) and \(A = \pi r^2 = L^2/(4\pi N^2)\). So \(M = IL^2/(4\pi N)\). Assertion (A) is false as \(M\) is inversely proportional to \(N\). Reason (R) is false as \(M\) is inversely proportional to \(N\) for a given wire length. Both (A) and (R) are false.
