Two short magnets with their axes horizontal and perpendicular to the magnetic meridian are placed with their centres $40 \, cm$ east and $50 \, cm$ west of a magnetic needle. If the needle remains undeflected,the ratio of their magnetic moments $M_1:M_2$ is

  • A
    $4:5$
  • B
    $16:25$
  • C
    $64:125$
