Two lines of force due to a bar magnet
You've reached today's free limit of 20 questions. Log in to keep practising for free.
Explanation

(d)

Two lines of force due to a bar magnet do not intersect at all.

A dip needle in a plane perpendicular to magnetic meridian will remain

Explanation

(a) Dip needle can not rotate horizontally. When it is placed perpendicular to the magnetic meridian, it experiences a force due to vertical component of the earth's magnetic field only. SO it remains vertical.

If the angles of dip at two places are 30o and 45o respectively, then the ratio of horizontal  components of earth's magnetic field at the two places will be

Explanation

(d)

It is called a magnetic equator or aclinic line.

The earth's magnetic field at a certain place has a horizontal component 0.3 Gauss and the total strength 0.5 Gauss. The angle of dip is

Two bar magnets with magnetic moments 2 M and M are fastened together at right angles to each other at their centres to form a crossed 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 an angle θ with the magnetic meridian such that

A magnetic needle is made to vibrate in uniform field H, then its time period is T. If it vibrates in the field of intensity 4H, its time period will be

Explanation

The time period of oscillation of a magnetic needle in a vibration magnetometer is inversely proportional to the square root of the magnetic field intensity. If the field intensity is increased by 4 times, the time period will decrease by a factor of 1/sqrt(4) = 1/2. Hence, the new time period will be T/2.

A bar magnet A of magnetic moment MA is found to oscillate at a frequency twice that of magnet B having identical size as magnet A, of magnetic moment MB when placed in a vibrating magneto-meter. We may say that

Explanation

The frequency of oscillation of a magnet in a vibrating magnetometer is inversely proportional to the square root of its magnetic moment. If the frequency of A is twice that of B, then M_A = (2)^2 * M_B = 4M_B.
