A compass needle free to turn in a horizontal plane is placed at the centre of a circular coil of 30turns and radius 12cm. The coil is in a vertical plane malting an angle of 45^(@) with the magnetic meridian when the current in the coil is 0.35A, the needle points west to east. Determine the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field at the location.

A dip circle is taken to geomagnetic equator. The needle is allowed to move in a vertical plane perpendicular to the magnetic meridian. The needle will stay

A dip needle vibrates in the vertical plane perpendicular to the magnetic meridian. The time period of vibration is found to be 2 sec. The same needle is then allowed to vibrate in the horizontal plane and the time period is again found to be 2 seconds. Then the angle of dip is

Two different magnets are tied together and allowed to vibrate in a horizontal plane. When their like poles are joined, time period of oscillation is 5 s and with unlike poles joined. Time period of oscillation is 15 s. The ratio of their magnetic moments is

Imagine a man swimming along a current carrying conductor in a direction opposite to that of current and facing the conductor. A magnetic needle free to rotate in a horizontal plane is mounted on a stand under the wire. Then

A magnetic needle free to rotate in a horizontal plane is placed at the centre of a circular current-carrying coil whose axis is perpendicular to the magnetic meridian at that place. It is also known that the magnetic declination at this place is zero and in this condition, the magnetic needle is pointing towards conditions, the magnetic needle is pointing towards the north-west. Now, if we reverse the direction of current in the coil, then the magnetic needle will
