Two bar magnet with magnetic moment 2M a...

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)/(sqrt3))`

B

`theta= tan^(-1) (sqrt3)`

C

`theta= tan^(-1) ((1)/(2))`

D

`theta= tan^(-1) ((3)/(4))`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C


`tan theta= (M)/(2M)`
`rArr theta= tan^(-1) (1//2)`
