Three equal magnetic moments are arranged as shown in the figure. What will be the resultant magnetic moment of this combination?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We can easily understand that the resultant of the two perpendicular magnetic moments is `M sqrt2` , and it will be in the same direction as the remaining third magnetic moment. Hence, the resultant of these vectors is going to be `M_("net") = M(1+sqrt2)`
