A small bar magnet of dipole moment $M$ is moving with speed $v$ along $x$ direction towards a small closed circular conducting loop of radius ' $a$ ' with its centre $O$ at $x=0$ (see figure). Assume $x>>a$ and the coil has a resistance $R$. Then which of the following statemenmt(s) is/are true?

Options:
  • A Magnetic field at the centre $\mathrm{O}$ of the circular coil due to the bar magnet is $\frac{\mathrm{M}}{\mathrm{x}^{3}}$
  • B Induced EMF is proportional to $\frac{1}{x^{4}}$
  • C The magnetic moment $\mu$ due to induced current in the coil is proportional to $\mathrm{a}^{4}$
  • D The heat produced is proportional to $\frac{1}{x^{6}}$

The correct answers are: Induced EMF is proportional to $\frac{1}{x^{4}}$, The magnetic moment $\mu$ due to induced current in the coil is proportional to $\mathrm{a}^{4}$


Magnetic field at an axial point is $2\left(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi}\right) \frac{M}{x^{3}}$
$$
\phi=2\left(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi}\right) \frac{M}{x^{3}} \cdot \pi a^{2}
$$
$\mathrm{EMF}=\frac{-\mathrm{d} \phi}{\mathrm{dt}}=-2\left(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi}\right) \mathrm{M} \pi \mathrm{a}^{2}\left(\frac{-3}{\mathrm{x}^{4}}\right) \frac{\mathrm{dx}}{\mathrm{dt}}=6\left(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi}\right) \frac{\mathrm{M} \pi \mathrm{a}^{2}}{\mathrm{x}^{4}} \mathrm{~V} \quad \mathrm{EMF} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{x}^{4}}$
Current in coil $=\frac{E M F}{R} \quad i=6\left(\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi}\right) \frac{M \pi a^{2}}{x^{4}} \frac{V}{R}$
Magnetic moment $\mu=\mathrm{i} \pi \mathrm{a}^{2}, \mu \propto \mathrm{a}^{4}$
Rate at which heat is produced $=\mathrm{i}^{2} \mathrm{R} . \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{x}^{8}}$
