The magnetic moment of both a current loop and a bar magnet is measured in:

Answer: A·m².

  • A A·m²
  • B tesla
  • C weber
  • D henry

Correct answer: A. A·m²

Explanation: Magnetic dipole moment has units of ampere·metre² (A·m²).

Bar Magnet Field LinesNSfield lines: N → S (outside magnet)

Magnetic field lines form closed loops: outside the bar magnet they run from the N pole to the S pole; inside, they continue from S back to N, so the lines never start or end anywhere.

Concept context

Bar magnets, Earth's magnetism, and how different materials respond to an external magnetic field - diamagnetic, paramagnetic, and ferromagnetic behaviour.
