medium

The time period of oscillation of a magnet in a vibration magnetometer is $1.5$ seconds. The time period of oscillation of another magnet similar in size, shape and mass but having one-fourth magnetic moment than that of first magnet, oscillating at same place will be.....$sec$

A

$0.75$

B

$1.5$

C

$3$

D

$6$

Solution

(c)$T \propto \frac{1}{{\sqrt M }} \Rightarrow \frac{{{T_1}}}{{{T_2}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{M_2}}}{{{M_1}}}} \Rightarrow \frac{{1.5}}{{{T_2}}} = \sqrt {\frac{{{M_1}/4}}{{{M_1}}}} = \frac{1}{2}$
$ \Rightarrow {T_2} = 3\,\sec $
