A bar magnet is 10 cm long is kept with its north (N) pole pointing north. A neutral point is formed at a distance of 15 cm from each pole. Given the horizontal component of earth's field is 0.4 Gauss, the pole strength of the magnet is

An electron is travelling along the x-direction. It encounters a magnetic field in the y-direction. Its subsequent motion will be

A short bar magnet with its north pole facing north forms a neutral point at P in the horizontal plane. If the magnet is rotated by 90^(@) in the horizontal plane, the net magnetic induction at P is (horizontal component of earth's magnetic field = B_(H) )

A short bar magnet placed in a horizontal plane has its axis aligned along the magnetic north-south direction. Null points are found on the axis of the magnet at 14 cm from the centre of the magnet. The earth's magnetic field at the place is 0.36 G and the angle of dip is zero. What is the total magnetic field on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null-point (i.e., 14 cm) from the centre of the magnet ? (At null points, field due to a magnet is equal and opposite to the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field.)

A short bar magnet placed in a horizontal plane has its axis aligned along the magnetic north-south direction. Null points are found on the axis of the magnet at 14 cm from the centre of the magnet. The earth's magnetic field at the place is 0.36 G and the angle of dip is zero.If the bar magnet is turned around by 180^(@) , where will the new null points be located ?
