5.Magnetism and Matter
medium
In a vibration magnetometer, the time period of a bar magnet oscillating in horizontal component of earth's magnetic field is $2$ $sec$. When a magnet is brought near and parallel to it, the time period reduces to $1 $ $sec$. The ratio $H/F $ of the horizontal component $H$ and the field $F$ due to magnet will be
A
$3$
B
$1/3$
C
$\sqrt 3 $
D
$1/\sqrt 3 $
Solution
(b)$T \propto \frac{1}{{\sqrt H }} \Rightarrow \frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{H_2}}}{{{H_1}}}} \Rightarrow \;\frac{2}{1} = \sqrt {\frac{{H + F}}{H}} \Rightarrow F = 3H$
or $\frac{H}{F} = \frac{1}{3}$
