Magnet and Magnetic Dipole Moment NEW
Question

Two short bar magnets of length 1 cm each have magnetic moments 1.20 Am2 and 1.00 Am2 respectively. They are placed on a horizontal table parallel to each other with their N poles pointing towards the South. They have a common magnetic equator and are separated by a distance of 20.0 cm. The value of the resultant horizontal magnetic induction at the mid-point O of the line joining their centres is close to (Horizontal component of earth's magnetic induction is 3.6 × 10–5 Wb/m2)

2.56 × 10–4 Wb/m2

3.50 × 10–4 Wb/m2

3.6 × 10–5 Wb/m2

5.80 × 10–4 Wb/m2

Solution

 B1=µ0M1sin90°4πr3

 B2=µ0M2sin90°4πr3

B = B1 + B2 + Bext

  =µ04π×(0.1)2 (1.2 + 1) + 3.6 × 10–5

= 10–4 × 2.2 + 3.6 × 10–5

= 25.6 × 10–5 wb/m2
