$A$ long vertical wire in which a current is flowing produces a neutral point with the Earth's magnetic field at a distance of $5 \ cm$ from the wire. If the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic induction is $0.18 \ G$,then the current in the wire is: (in $A$)

  • A
    $0.45$
  • B
    $4.5$
  • C

$A$ vibration magnetometer consists of two identical bar magnets placed one over the other such that they are mutually perpendicular and bisect each other. The time period of oscillation in a horizontal magnetic field is $4 \, s$. If one of the magnets is taken away,find the period of oscillation of the other in the same field (in $s$):-

$A$ deflection magnetometer is adjusted and a magnet of magnetic moment $M$ is placed on it in the usual manner and the observed deflection is $\theta$. The period of oscillation of the needle before settling of the deflection is $T$. When the magnet is removed,the period of oscillation of the needle is $T_0$ before settling to $0^{\circ}-0^{\circ}$. If the earth's horizontal magnetic field is $B_H$,the relation between $T$ and $T_0$ is

The length of a magnet is large compared to its width and breadth. The time period of its oscillation in a vibration magnetometer is $2 \, s$. The magnet is cut along its length into three equal parts and these three parts are then placed on each other with their like poles together. The time period of this combination will be

$A$ bar magnet $A$ of magnetic moment $M_A$ is found to oscillate at a frequency twice that of magnet $B$ of magnetic moment $M_B$ when placed in a vibrating magnetometer. We may say that
