An electron moving in a circular orbit of radius makes rotations per second. The magnetic field produced at the centre has magnitude
To solve this problem, we need to find the magnetic field produced at the center of a circular orbit by an electron moving in that orbit.Given:• Radius of the orbit • Number of rotations per second The magnetic field at the center of a circular loop carrying current is given by:Here, is the permeability of free space.To find the current we consider the charge moving in the loop.The charge of an electron is The current is defined as charge per unit time. Since the electron makes rotations per second,charge per rotationrotations per secondSubstitute into the magnetic field equation:Therefore, the magnetic field produced at the center is:This corresponds to Option 3.
