A vibration magnetometer placed in magnetic meridian has a small bar magnet. The magnet executes oscillations with a time period of 2 sec in earth's horizontal magnetic field of 24 microtesla. When a horizontal field of 18 microtesla is produced opposite to the earth's field by placing a current carrying wire, the new time period of magnet will be

A

4s

B

1s

C

2s

D

3s

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

`T= 2pi sqrt((I)/(B_(H)M))`
`T= 2pi sqrt((I)/(M(B_(H)- B))) rArr T.= T. (1)/(sqrt((1- (B)/(B_(H)))))`
`rArr T.= 2T= 4` sec

A short magnet oscillates in a vibration magnetometer with a time period of 0.10 s where the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field is 24 mu T . An upward current of 18 A is established in the vertical wire placed 20 cm east of the magnet . Find the new time period.

A vibrations magnetometer consists of two indentical bar magnet placed one over the other that they are perpendicular and bisect each other. The time period of oscillation in a horizontal magnetic field is 2^(5//4) s. One of the magnets is removed and if the other magnet oscillates in the same field, then the time period in second is :
