5.Magnetism and Matter
easy

Two identical bar magnets are fixed with their centres at a distance $d$ apart. A stationary charge $Q$ is placed at $P$ in between the gap of the two magnets at a distance $D$ from the center $O$ as shown in the figure. The force on the charge $Q$ is

A

Directed along $OP$

B

Zero

C

Directed along $PO$

D

Directed perpendicular to the plane of paper

Solution

Magnetic field due to bar magnets exerts force on moving charges only. Since the charge is at rest, zero force acts on it.
