The ratio of magnetic moments of two short magnets which give deflection in "tan"B position when placed at 12 cm and 18 cm from centre of a deflection magnetometer is

A

`2/3`

B

`4/9`

C

`8/27`

D

`8/9`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In deflection magnetometer the magnetic field,
`B=(mu_(0))/(4pi)(2M)/(d^(3))`
Ratio magnetic moments,
`(M_(1))/(M_(2))=((d_(1))/(d_(2)))^(3)`
`d_(1)=12cm, d_(2)=18 cm` (Given)
`(M_(1))/(M_(2))=(12/18)^(3)=(2/3)^(3)`
`(M_(1))/(M_(2))=8/27`

    A short bar magnet has a magnetic moment of 0.48 JT^(-1) . Give the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the magnet at a distance of 10 cm from the centre of the magnet on (a) the axis, (b) the equitorial lines (normal bisector) of the magnet.

    A bar magnet of magnetic moment 0.4Am^(2) is placed in the magnetic meridian with its north pole pointing north. A neutral point is obtained at a distance of 10 cm from the centre of the magnet. If the length of the magnet is also 10 cm, what is the value of horizontal component of earth's field at the place?

    A very small magnet is placed in the magnetic meridian with its S-pole pointing north. The null point is obtained 20 cm away from the centre of the magnet. What is the magnetic moment of the magnet if earth's field is 0.3xx 10^(-4) T ?

    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 deflection magnetometer is adjusted and a magnet of magnetic moment M is placed on it in the usual manner and the observed deflection is theta. The period of oscillation of the needle before setting of the deflection is T. When the magnet is removed, the period of oscillation of the needle is T_(0) before setting to 0^(@). If the eart's induced magnetic field is B_(H) , the relation between T and T_(0) is
