The magnetic moment of a bar magnet equals that of an equivalent:
ASolenoid
BCapacitor
CResistors
DGenerator
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Solenoid
1. Both produce the same far axial field.
2. Equal fields imply equal moments.
3. So the magnet matches an equivalent solenoid.
4. The answer is solenoid.
