If ratio of magnetic induction on the axial line of a long magnet at distance 20 cm and 30 cm is 128 : 27. Find length of the magnet.

  1. $ 10cm $

  2. $ 20cm $

  3. $ 30cm $

  4. $ 40cm $


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$B _{axial} = \displaystyle \frac{\mu _0}{4\pi} \frac{2Mr}{(r^2-l^2)^2}$
$B _{20} : B _{30} = 128  :  27$
$\displaystyle \frac{20}{(20^2 - l^2)^2} \times \frac{(30^2 - l^2)^2}{30} = \frac{128}{127}$
$2 (30^2 - l^2)^2 (27) = 3 (20^2 - l^2)^2 128$
$\sqrt{54}(900 - l^2) = \sqrt{384} (400 - l^2)$
$900 \sqrt{54} - \sqrt{54}l^2 = \sqrt{384} \times 400 - \sqrt{384}l^2$
$l^2 (12.2474) = 12224. 75$
$l^2 = 100 ;  l = \sqrt{100}-10 cm$
$\therefore$ Magnetic length $=2l = 20 cm$

A magnetic induction due to a short bar magnet of magnetic moment 5.4 A m$^2$ at a distance of 30 cm on the equatorial line is :

  1. $2 \times 10^{-4}T$

  2. $2 \times 10^{-5}T$

  3. $3 \times 10^{-5}T$

  4. $3 \times 10^{-4}T$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

$B _{equi} = \displaystyle \frac{\mu _0}{4 \pi } \frac{\mu}{r^3} = \frac{10^{-7}\times 5.4}{(0.3)^3} = 2 \times 10^{-5}T$

The magnetic induction due to short bar magnet on its axial line at a distance 'd' is 'B'. What is the magnetic induction due to the same bar magnet on the same line at a distance $\displaystyle \frac{4d}{5}?$

  1. $\displaystyle \frac{125}{4}B$

  2. $\displaystyle \frac{125}{32}B$

  3. $\displaystyle \frac{125}{64}B$

  4. $\displaystyle \frac{125}{16}B$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$B = \displaystyle \frac{\mu _0  2M}{4 \pi  d^3}$
At $(4d/5) $ distance
$B' = \displaystyle \frac{\mu _0  2M}{4 \pi \left ( \frac{4d}{5} \right )^3} = \frac{\mu _0  2M}{4  \pi (d^3)} \left ( \frac{125}{64} \right )$
$=\displaystyle \frac{125}{64}B$

A short bar magnet with the north pole facing north forms a neutral point at P in the horizontal plane. If the magnet is rotated by $90^o$ in the horizontal plane, the net magnetic induction at $P$ is ( Horizontal component of earth's magnetic field $= B _H$):

  1. zero

  2. $2 B _H$

  3. $\displaystyle \dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2} B _H$

  4. $\sqrt{5}B _H$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

When the north pole of short bar magnet is facing North pole of the earth, at the neutral point P, which is on equatorial line. 
$B _H = \dfrac {\mu _0 M}{4\pi d^3} = B _1$ ............(1)
When the magnet is rotated by $90^o$, the magnetic induction at P which is on axial line,
$B _H = \dfrac {\mu _0 2M}{4\pi d^3} = B _2$ ............(2)
Therefore, net magnetic induction at P is
$B _{net} = \sqrt {(B _1^2 + B _2^2)}$
$B _{net} = \sqrt {(1^2 + 2^2)}B _H = \sqrt 5 B _H$

The magnetic field strength at a point at a distance d from the centre on the axial line of a very short bar magnet of Magnetic moment $M$ is $B$. The Magnetic induction at a distance $2d$ from the centre on the equatorial line of a Magnetic Moment $8M$ will be

  1. $4B$

  2. $0.25B$

  3. $0.5B$

  4. $2B$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

$B=\frac{2\mu _0m}{4 \pi d^{3}}$

$B equatorial =\frac{\mu _0m}{4 \pi d^{3}}$

$d _1=d$
$d _2=2d$
Also,
$m _1=M$
$m _2=8M$

$B _{1}=\frac{2\mu _0m}{4 \pi d^{3}}............1$

$B _{2}=\frac{2\mu _0m}{4 \pi d^{3}} = \frac{\mu _0 8M}{4 \pi (2d)^{3}}.........2$
From 1 & 2 we get that,
$B _{equatorial} =\frac{B}{2}$

Charge is uniformly distributed in  a space. The net flux passing through the surface of an imaginary cube of side''a'' in the spaceis $\phi $ the space is 0. The net flux passing through the surface of an imaginary sphere of radius ''a''- in the space will be:

  1. $\phi $

  2. $\dfrac { 3 }{ 4\pi } \phi $

  3. $\dfrac {2\pi }{ 3 } \phi $

  4. $\dfrac {4\pi }{ 3 } \phi $


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

external flux of a surface is given by : E.ds.

since, the flux through the cube would be $E\times a2 = x$

therefore for a sphere,  the flux would be $E.\times Φ a2$

which is equal to $Φ$

A closely wound solenoid of $2000$ turns and area of cross-section $1.5\times10^{-4}\ m^{2}$ carries a current of $2.0A$. It is suspended through its centre and perpendicular to its length, allowing it to turn in a horizontal plane in a uniform magnetic field $5\times10^{-2}$ Tesla making an angle of $30^{o}$ with the axis of the solenoid. The torque on the solenoid will be-

  1. $1.5\times10^{-3}\ N.m$

  2. $1.5\times10^{-2}\ N.m$

  3. $3\times10^{-2}\ N.m$

  4. $3\times10^{-3}\ N.m$


Correct Option: D

Two bar magnet are kept together and suspended freely in earth's magnetic field. When both like poles are aligned, the time period is 6 sec. When opposite poles are aligned, the time period is 12 sec. The ratio of magnetic moments of the two magnets is :

  1. $5/3$

  2. $2/1$

  3. $3/2$

  4. $3/1$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

$T _1= 6 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(M _1+M _2)B}}$
$T _2= 12 = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(M _1+M _2)B}}$
$\therefore \dfrac{6}{12}=\dfrac{1}{2}= \sqrt{\dfrac{M- M _2}{M _1+M _2}}$ or $ M _1+M _2= 4( M _1-M _2) $
$ 3M _1= 5M _2$
$\dfrac{M _1}{M _2}=\dfrac{5}{3}$
