$A$ long vertical wire in which a current is flowing produces a neutral point with the Earth's magnetic field at a distance of $5 \ cm$ from the wire. If the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic induction is $0.18 \ G$,then the current in the wire is: (in $A$)

  • A
    $0.45$
  • B
    $4.5$
  • C

In a uniform magnetic field of $0.049 \ T$, a magnetic needle performs $20$ complete oscillations in $5 \ s$. The moment of inertia of the needle is $9.8 \times 10^{-5} \ kg \ m^2$. If the magnitude of the magnetic moment of the needle is $x \times 10^{-5} \ A \ m^2$, then the value of '$x$' is: (in $\pi^2$)

Two bar magnets $A$ and $B$ are placed one over the other and are allowed to vibrate in a vibration magnetometer. They make $20$ oscillations per minute when the similar poles of $A$ and $B$ are on the same side, while they make $15$ oscillations per minute when their opposite poles lie on the same side. If $M_A$ and $M_B$ are the magnetic moments of $A$ and $B$ and if $M_A > M_B$, the ratio of $M_A$ and $M_B$ is

Tangent galvanometer measures

The time period of a freely suspended magnet is $2 \ s$. If it is broken in length into two equal parts and one part is suspended in the same way,then its time period will be.....$s$.

At two places $A$ and $B$,using a vibration magnetometer,a magnet vibrates in a horizontal plane. Its respective periodic times are $2 \ s$ and $3 \ s$. At these places,the Earth's horizontal components are $H_A$ and $H_B$ respectively. Then the ratio between $H_A$ and $H_B$ will be:
