Magnetic moment of an electron orbiting in a circular orbit
Answers
We know that the orbiting electron behaves as a current loop. The current due to orbital motion of electron is
begin mathsize 11px style straight I space equals space straight e over straight T space equals space fraction numerator straight e over denominator 2 πr divided by straight nu end fraction space equals space fraction numerator eν over denominator 2 πr end fraction end style
Area of the current loop (A) = πr²
Therefore, magnetic moment of current loop = IA
B = begin mathsize 11px style fraction numerator ev over denominator 2 πr end fraction space cross times space πr squared space equals space evr over 2 end style

here's ur answer mate
Quantization of the magnetic moment is the result of quantization of the orbital angular momentum. As we will see in the next section, the total magnetic dipole moment of the hydrogen atom is due to both the orbital motion of the electron and its intrinsic spin.
