Magnetic Dipole Magnetic Dipole MomentMoment

The magnetic dipole moment can The magnetic dipole moment can be defined asbe defined as 2ˆ bIam z

Direction of the dipole moment is determined by the direction of current using the right-hand rule.

Magnitude of the dipole moment is the product of the current and the area of the loop.
