Two short magnetic dipoles \({m}_{1}\) and \({m}_{2}\) each having magnetic moment of \(1\, {Am}^{2}\) are placed at point \({O}\) and \(P\) respectively. The distance between \(OP\) is \(1\, meter.\) The torque experienced by the magnetic dipole \({m}_{2}\) due to the presence of \({m}_{1}\) is ...... \(\times 10^{-7}\, {Nm}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\vec{\tau}=\overrightarrow{{M}}_{2} \times \overrightarrow{{B}}_{1}\)

\(\tau={M}_{2} {B}_{1} \sin 90^{\circ}\)

\(=1 \times \frac{\mu_{0}}{4 \pi} \frac{{M}_{1}}{(1)^{3}} 1\)

\(=10^{-7} {N} \cdot {m}\)
