Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \( 12 s \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Given, magnetic moment, \( M=6 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{Am}^{2} \), moment of inertia, \( I=12 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{kgm}^{2} \); magnetic field,
\( B=2 \times 10^{-2} T \); number of oscillations \( =20 \).
Now, time period of one oscillation, \( t=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{B \times M}} \)
\( t=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{12 \times 10^{-6}}{2 \times 10^{-2} \times 6 \times 10^{-2}}}=2 \Pi \times 10^{-1} \)
Therefore, time taken by dipole to complete \( 20 \) oscillations is
\( T=20 \times t=20 \times 2 \Pi \times 10^{-1}=20 \times 2 \times 3 \times \frac{1}{10}=12 s \)
