JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 5. Magnetism and matter
The mid points of two small magnetic dipoles of length \(d\) in end-on positions, are separated by a distance \(x, (x > > d)\). The force between them is proportional to \(x^{-n}\) where \(n\) is

- A \(1\)
- B \(2\)
- C \(3\)
- D \(4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) \(4\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
