5.Magnetism and Matter
easy
Two short magnets with their axes horizontal and perpendicular to the magnetic meridian are placed with their centres $40\, cm$ east and $ 50\,cm$ west of magnetic needle. If the needle remains undeflected, the ratio of their magnetic moments ${M_1}:{M_2}$ is
A
$4:5$
B
$16:25$
C
$64 : 125$
D
$2:\sqrt 5 $
Solution
(c)For null deflection $\frac{{{M_1}}}{{{M_2}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{d_1}}}{{{d_2}}}} \right)^3} = {\left( {\frac{{40}}{{50}}} \right)^3} = \frac{{64}}{{125}}$
