How is magnetic force between two poles ...

How is magnetic force between two poles affected when strength of each pole is doubled and distance between them is halved?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Force becomes 16 times. This is because
`F^'=(mu_0)/(4pi)(m_1^'m_2^')/(r^('2))=(mu_0)/(4pi)((2m_1)(2m_2))/((r//2)^2)`
`=16F`
