3.    Magnetic dipole moment of an atom

·      Current loop is like a magnet. It is a dipole source which generates Bdipole.

·      Dipole moment of a H-like atom in terms of orbital angular momentum.

·      Quantum unit of atomic dipole moment clicker 19-4

·      Order of magnitude estimate of the macro-magnetic-dipole-moment of a bar magnet.

4.    Ampere’s law

·      B due to a line segment – a simple example of the Ampere’s law.
