Asseriton (A): A magnetic suspended freely in an uniform magnetic field experiences no net force, but a torque that tends to algn the magnet along the field when it is deflected form equilibrium position
Reason (R ): Net force `mB-mB-0`, but the forces on north and south poles being equal, unlike and parallel make up a couple that tends to align the magnet, along the field.

A

Both `A` and `R` are true and `R` is the correct explanation of `A`.

B

Both `A` and `R` are true and `R` is not correct explanation of `A`.

C

Assertion: When a magnetic dipole is placed in a non uniform magnetic field, only a torque acts on the dipole. Reason: Force would also acts on dipole if magnetic field were uniform.

Assertion: When a magnetic dipole is placed in a non-uniform magnetic field, only a torque acts on the dipole. Reason: Force would also acts on dipole if magnetic field were uniform.

A: A magnetize needle in a uniform magnetic field experiences a torque but no net force, however, an iron hail near a bar magnet experiences a force of attraction as well as torque. R: Bar magnet creates non-uniform magnetic field.

Can a magnetic dipole experience a torque or net force in (i) a uniform magnetic field and (ii) a non-uniform magnetic field?

Assertion (A): An alpha particle placed in a magnetic field will not experience any force, if it moves in the magnetic field parallel to field lines. Reason (R): The force is zero if current and field are in the same direction.
