$A$ short bar magnet is placed in a uniform magnetic field of $2 \ T$ such that the axis of the magnet makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with the direction of the magnetic field. If the torque acting on the magnet is $0.36 \sqrt{2} \ Nm$,then the magnetic moment of the magnet is: (in $J \ T^{-1}$)

The magnetic field at a point $P$ on the axis of a short bar magnet of magnetic moment $M$ is $B$. If another short bar magnet of magnetic moment $2M$ is placed on the first magnet such that their axes are perpendicular and their centres coincide. The resultant magnetic field at the point $P$ due to both the magnets is

$A$ magnet of length $10 \text{ cm}$ and magnetic moment $1 \text{ Am}^2$ is placed along side $AB$ of an equilateral triangle $ABC$. If the length of the side $AB$ is $10 \text{ cm}$,find the magnetic induction at point $C$. (Given $\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ Hm}^{-1}$)

$A$ bar magnet of magnetic moment $1.5 \, A \cdot m^2$ lies aligned with the direction of a uniform magnetic field of $2 \, T$. What is the amount of work required to turn the magnet so as to align its magnetic moment normal to the field direction?
