Two bar magnet with magnetic moment `2M` and `M` are fastened togather at right angles to each other at their centres to from a cross system, which can rotate freely about a vertical axis through the centre. The crossed system sets in earth's magnetic field with magnet having magnetic moment `2M` making and angle `theta` with the magnetic merdian such that
A
`theta=tan^(-1)((1)/(sqrt(3)))`
B
`theta=tan^(-1)(sqrt(3))`
C
`theta=tan^(-1)((1)/(2))`
D
`theta=tan^(-1)((3)/(4))`
