Magnetic moment is a_____________?
Correct answer: D. vector quantity
- A. pole strength
- B. universal constant
- C. scalar quantity
- D. vector quantity
Explanation
Magnetic moment has both magnitude and direction, with its direction conventionally from the south pole to the north pole inside the magnet. Therefore, it is a vector quantity, not merely pole strength.
