Magnetism Question 189

Question: Force between two identical bar magnets whose centres are r metre apart is 4.8 N, when their axes are in the same line. If separation is increased to 2r, the force between them is reduced to

[AIIMS 1995]

Options:

A) 2.4N

B) 1.2N

C) 0.6N

D) 0.3N

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

In magnetic dipole, force $ \propto \frac{1}{r^{4}} $ Hence new force $ =\frac{4.8}{2^{4}}=\frac{4.8}{16}=0.3\ N $
