Magnetic moment (M) -

M=NiA

- wherein

N-number of turns in the coil 

i-current throughout the coil 

A-area of the coil 

 

Initial M=I.\pi r^{2}

Final M'=I.A'

      2\pi r=4L\ \Rightarrow L=\frac{\pi r}{2}

      A'=L^{2}=\frac{\pi^{2}r^{2}}{4}

        \frac{M'}{M}=\frac{I.\frac{\pi^{2}r^{2}}{4}}{I.\pi r^{2}}=\frac{\pi}{4}

\Rightarrow M'=\frac{\pi}{4}M
