$A$ bar magnet has a magnetic moment of $200 \text{ A m}^2$. The magnet is suspended in a magnetic field of $0.30 \text{ N A}^{-1} \text{ m}^{-1}$. The torque required to rotate the magnet from its equilibrium position through an angle of $30^{\circ}$ will be:

Write the equation of torque on a magnetic needle placed in a uniform magnetic field and derive the expression for its time period $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{mB}}$.

Two short bar magnets have their magnetic moments $1.2 \text{ A m}^2$ and $1.0 \text{ A m}^2$. They are placed on a horizontal table parallel to each other at a distance of $20 \text{ cm}$ between their centres,such that their north poles point towards geographic south. They have a common magnetic equatorial line. The horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T}$. The resultant horizontal magnetic induction at the midpoint of the line joining their centers is $\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} = 10^{-7} \text{ N/A}^2\right)$.
