Magnet and Magnetic Dipole
Question

Two magnetic dipoles X and Y are placed at a separation d, with their axes perpendicular to each other. The dipole moment of Y is twice that of X. A particle of charge q is passing through their midpoint P, at angle θ = 45º with the horizontal line, as shown in figure. What would be the magnitude of force on the particle at that instant? (d is much larger than the dimensions of the dipole)

2 (μ04π)M(d/2)3×qv

0

(μ04π)2M(d /2)3×qv

(μ04π)M(d /2)3×qv

Solution

B1=2(μ04π)M(d/2)3; B2=(μ04π)2M(d/2)3

B1 = B2

⇒ Bnet is at 45° (θ = 45°)

Velocity of charge and Bnet are parallel so

by

F→=q(b→×B→) force on charge particle is zero.
