Correct Answer :

Option B

(A)- (IV), (B)- (I), (C)- (III), (D)- (II)

Solution :

The correct option is (A)- (IV), (B)- (I), (C)- (III), (D)- (II).

Let us analyze each physical quantity in List-I and determine its corresponding SI unit in List-II.

(A) Magnetic field:
The magnetic field is defined as the magnetic flux per unit area.
The SI unit of magnetic flux is the Weber (Wb), and the unit of area is square meters (m2).
Therefore, the unit of magnetic field is:

Unit of Magnetic Field = Wb m2 = Wb m−2

This matches with (IV) in List-II. Thus, (A) matches with (IV).

(B) Magnetic moment:
The potential energy (U) of a magnetic dipole in a magnetic field (B) is given by the relation:

U = − M ⋅ B ⁡ cos (θ)

where M is the magnetic moment. Rearranging for M, we find:

M = U B ⁡ cos (θ)

Since energy is measured in Joules (J) and magnetic field in Tesla (T), the unit of magnetic moment is:

Unit of Magnetic Moment = J T = J T−1

This matches with (I) in List-II. Thus, (B) matches with (I).

(C) Pole strength:
The magnetic moment (M) of a magnetic dipole can also be expressed as the product of its pole strength (m) and magnetic length (L):

M = m ⋅ L

Rearranging for pole strength:

m = M L

Using the unit of magnetic moment derived above (JT−1) and length in meters (m), the unit of pole strength becomes:

Unit of Pole Strength = J T−1 m = J T−1 m−1

This matches with (III) in List-II. Thus, (C) matches with (III).

(D) Permeability of free space (μ0):
According to Ampere's Law, the magnetic field B at a distance r from an infinitely long straight current-carrying wire is:

B = μ0 I 2 π r

Rearranging for μ0:

μ0 = B ⋅ (2πr) I

Substituting the units of magnetic field (Tesla, T), distance (meters, m), and current (Amperes, A):

Unit of μ0 = T ⋅ m A = T m A−1

This matches with (II) in List-II. Thus, (D) matches with (II).
