When a current in a circular loop is equivalently replaced by a magnetic dipole

Athe pole strength $$m$$ of each pole is fixed
Bthe distance $$d$$ between the poles is fixed
Cthe product $$md$$ is fixed
Correct Answer
DNone of these

Solution

Magnetic moment is the product of pole strength and the distance between the poles.
If the loop is replaced by an equivalent magnetic dipole, the product md is fixed.
