Magnetism Question 205
Two similar bar magnets P and Q, each of magnetic moment M, are taken, If P is cut along its axial line and Q is cut along its equatorial line, all the four pieces obtained have the same magnetic moment
[EAMCET (Engg.) 2000]
Options:
A) Equal pole strengths
B) Magnetic moment $ \frac{M}{2} $
C) Magnetic moment $ \frac{M}{2} $
D) Magnetic moment M
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
If pole strength, magnetic moment and length of each part are $ {m}’,{M}’ $ and $ {L}’ $ respectively then $ {m}’=\frac{m}{n} $
$ {m}’=m $
$ {L}’=L $
$ {L}’=\frac{L}{2} $
$ \Rightarrow {M}’=\frac{M}{2} $
$ \Rightarrow {M}’=\frac{M}{2} $
