Which of the following produces a magnetic field?

Correct answer: D. All

  • A. Orbital motion of electron
  • B. Spin motion of electron
  • C. Spin motion of nucleus
  • D. All

Explanation

Both the orbital motion of electrons around the nucleus and the spin motion of electrons contribute to the generation of a magnetic field. The spin motion of the nucleus also contributes, but it is much weaker compared to the electron contributions.
