Torques $\tau_1$ and $\tau_2$ are required for a magnetic needle to remain perpendicular to the magnetic fields of $B_1$ and $B_2$ at two different places. The ratio of $B_1: B_2$ is equal to

  • A
    $\tau_2: \tau_1$
  • B
    $\tau_1: \tau_2$
  • C
    $\frac{\tau_1+\tau_2}{\tau_1-\tau_2}$
  • D
    $\frac{\tau_1-\tau_2}{\tau_1+\tau_2}$

$A$ short bar magnet placed in a uniform magnetic field making an angle with the field experiences a torque. If the angle made by the magnet with the field is changed from $30^{\circ}$ to $45^{\circ}$,the torque of the magnet

$A$ magnetic needle lying parallel to a magnetic field requires $W$ units of work to turn it through $60^{\circ}$. The torque required to maintain the needle in this position will be

Two identical bar magnets of magnetic moment $M$ each,are placed along $X$ and $Y$-axes,respectively at a distance $d$ from the origin (as shown in the figure). The origin lies on the perpendicular bisector of the magnet placed on the $X$-axis and on the magnetic axis of the magnet placed on the $Y$-axis. If the magnitude of the total magnetic field at the origin is $B = \alpha \left[ \frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} \frac{M}{d^3} \right]$,then the value of the constant $\alpha$ will be (given $d >> l$,where $l$ is the length of the bar magnets and the direction of $N$ to $S$ in the magnets is opposite with respect to each other).

Two short bar magnets have magnetic moments $1.2 \text{ Am}^2$ and $1.0 \text{ Am}^2$. 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 the geographic south. They share a common magnetic equatorial line. The horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T}$. Calculate the resultant horizontal magnetic induction at the midpoint of the line joining their centres. (Given: $\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} = 10^{-7} \text{ N/A}^2$)
