Answer

$\mu=0.30 A.m^2$

Work Step by Step

The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment can be calculated from the formula: $\mu=iA$ To use this formula, we first need to find the area of the triangle: $A=\frac{1}{2}(0.30\times 0.40)=0.06m^2$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\mu=5\times 0.006$ $\mu=0.30 A.m^2$
