TS EAMCET · Physics · Magnetic Properties of Matter

The magnetic needle of a vibration magnetometer makes 12 oscillations per minute in the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field. When an external short bar magnet is placed at some distance along the axis of the needle in the same line, it makes 15 oscillations per minute. If the poles of the bar magnet are interchanged, the number of oscillations it makes per minute is

  1. A \(\sqrt{61}\)
  2. B \(\sqrt{63}\)
  3. C \(\sqrt{65}\)
  4. D \(\sqrt{67}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\sqrt{63}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{array}{ll} \text {Ist case } & n=\frac{1}{2 \pi} \sqrt{\frac{M H}{I}} \\ \Rightarrow & n \propto \sqrt{H} \Rightarrow \frac{n_1}{n_2}=\sqrt{\frac{H}{H+H_1}} \\ \Rightarrow \quad & \frac{12}{15}=\sqrt{\frac{H}{H+H_1}} \Rightarrow H_1=\frac{9}{16} H \end{array}\) IInd…
