Magnetic field due to currentHard

Question

A particle of charge q and mass m moves in a circular orbit of radius r with angular speed ω. The ratio of the magnitude of its magetic moment to that of its angular momentum depend on

Options

A.ω and q
B.ω, q and m
C.q and m
D.ω and m

Solution

Ratio of magnetic moment and angular momentum is given by
     
Which is a function of q and m only. This can be derived as follows
     M = iA = (qf).(πr2)
     = (q)
and    L = Iω = (mr2)
∴
