A current carrying circular loop of radius R is placed in the x-y plane with centre at the origin. Half of the loop with x >0 is now bent so that it now lies in the y-z plane.
(a) The magnitude of magnetic moment now diminishes.
(b) The magnetic moment does not change.
(c) The magnitude of B at (0,0, z), z>>R increases.
(d) The magnitude of B at (0,0,z), z>>R is unchanged.

Answer- (a)
Explanation- magnetic moment, M = niA, when we decrease the radius by half its area is decrease by ¼ so the magnetic moment also.so magnetic moment diminishes.
