    The document summarizes the calculation of the magnetic moment of a rotating disk with uniform surface charge density. It divides the disk into concentric rings, calculates the current within each ring created by its rotation, and integrates the magnetic moment of each ring from the center to the edge to get the total magnetic moment of the disk, which equals the total charge on the disk multiplied by the radius squared and angular velocity, divided by four pi.

    Magnetic Moment of a Rotating Disk

    Consider a nonconducting disk of radius R with a uniform surface charge density . The disk rotates with angular velocity . Calculation of the magnetic moment : Total charge on disk: Q = (R2 ). Divide the disk into concentric rings of width dr. Period of rotation: T = 2 . dQ Current within ring: dI = = (2rdr) = rdr. T 2 Magnetic moment of ring: d = dI (r2 ) = r3 dr. Z R Magnetic moment of disk: = r3 dr = R4 . 4 0 1 Vector relation: = R4 = QR2 . 4 4
