What does the analog (similarity) of bar magnet’s and solenoid’s magnetic field lines suggest ?
The analogy (similarity) of the magnetic field lines of the bar magnet and solenoid is shown as follows :
$(i)$ A bar magnet may be thought of as a large number of circulating current in analog with a solenoid.
$(ii)$ Cutting a bar magnet in half the each piece behave like an independent magnet. Cutting a solenoid from middle we get two smaller solenoids with weaker magnetic properties.
$(iii)$ Like a bar magnet, the magnetic lines in the solenoid are continuous emerging from one face of the solenoid and entering into the other face and form a closed loop.
$(iv)$ Like a bar magnet the magnetic field at point on the axis, the magnetic field of solenoid at point on axis is $\mathrm{B}=\frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{2 m}{r^{3}}$.
Two bar magnets having same geometry with magnetic moments $M$ and $2 M$, are firstly placed in such a way that their similar poles are same side then its time period of oscillation is $T_{1}$. Now the polarity of one of the magnet is reversed then time period of oscillation is $T_{2},$ then
Two lines of force due to a bar magnet
Two like magnetic poles of strength $ 10$ and $40$ $ SI$ units are separated by a distance $30 \,cm$. The intensity of magnetic field is zero on the line joining them
