उत्तर

Given :
Horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field, B = 26 μT ​     
Angle of dip, δ = 60°

The horizontal component of Earth's magnetic field `(B_H)` is given by 

`B_H = Bcosδ`

Here,
B = Total magnetic field of Earth
On substituting the respective values, we get

`26 xx 10^-6 = B xx 1/2`

⇒ B = `52 xx 10^-6 = 52  "uT"`

The vertical component of Earth's magnetic field `(B_y)` is given by 

`B_y = Bsinδ`

⇒ `B_y = 52 xx 10^-6 xx (sqrt(3))/2`

⇒ `B_y = 44.98  "uT" = 45  "uT"`

State any two advantages of electromagnets over permanent magnets.


Can we have a single north pole, or a single south pole?


Compare the direction of the magnetic field inside a solenoid with that of the field there if the solenoid is replaced by its equivalent combination of north pole and south pole.


Magnetic scalar potential is defined as `U(vec r_2) - U(vec r_1) = - ∫_vec(r_1)^vec(r_2)` `vec (B) . dvec(l)`

Apply this equation to a closed curve enclosing a long straight wire. The RHS of the above equation is then `-u_0 i` by Ampere's law. We see that `U(vec(r_2)) ≠ U(vec(r_1))` even when `vec r_2 =vec r_1` .Can we have a magnetic scalar potential in this case?


Consider the situation of the previous problem. The directions of the magnetic field due to the dipole are opposite at

A short magnet makes 40 oscillations per minute when used in an oscillation magnetometer at a place where the earth's horizontal magnetic field is 25 μT. Another short magnet of magnetic moment 1.6 A m2 is placed 20 cm east of the oscillating magnet. Find the new frequency of oscillation if the magnet has its north pole (a) towards north and (b) towards south.
