A magnet of magnetic moment `M` oscillating freely in earth's horizontal magnetic field makes n oscillations per minute. If the magnetic moment is quadrupled and the earth's field is doubled, the number of oscillations mode per minute would be

A

`n/(2sqrt(2))`

B

`n/sqrt(2)`

C

`2sqrt(2n)`

D

`sqrt(2n)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

No. of oscillation per minute `=1/(2pi)sqrt((MB_(H))/I)`
`implies n prop sqrt(MB_(H)), Mrarr4 "times"`
`B_(H)rarr2` "times"`
So `vrarr sqrt(8) "times" i.e. v^(')=sqrt(8)v=2sqrt(2)n`

When a bar magnet is placed at some distance along the axis of the magnetic needle of an oscillation magnetometer located in earth's magnetic field, the needle makes 14 oscillaitons per minute. If the bar magnet is turned so that its poles exchange their positions, the needle makes 20 oscillations per minute. If the magnet is completely removed, the frequency of the needle is nearly ("assuming"BgtB_(H) "at needle")

The frequency of oscillation of the magnet in an oscillation magnetometer in the earth's magnetic field is 40 oscillations per minute. A short bar magnet is placed to the north of the magnetometer, at a separation of 20cm from the oscillating magnet, with its north pole pointing towards north (figure). The frequency of oscillation is found to increase to 60 oscillations per minute. Calculate the magnetic moment of this short bar magnet. Horizonatl component of the earth's magnetic field is 24 muT .

The magnetic needle of a vibration magnetometer makes 12 oscillations per minute in the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field. When an external short bar magnet is placed at some distance along the axis of the needle in the same line it makes 15 oscillations per minute. If the poles of the bar magnet are inter changed, the number of oscillations it takes per minute is
