The effect due to a uniform magnetic field on a freely suspended magnetic needle is as follows:

$A$ bar magnet of magnetic moment $M$ and moment of inertia $I$ is freely suspended such that the magnetic axial line is in the direction of the magnetic meridian. If the magnet is displaced by a very small angle $\theta$, the angular acceleration is (Magnetic induction of earth's horizontal field $= B_H$)

The midpoints 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:

$A$ short magnetic needle is placed in a magnetic field $B \hat{i}$. The needle is oriented in the direction $(\sqrt{3} \hat{i} + \hat{j})$. The needle experiences a torque of $0.06 \ N-m$. If the same magnetic needle is placed in a magnetic field $2B \hat{j}$ and is oriented in the direction $(\hat{i} + \sqrt{3} \hat{j})$,the torque experienced by it is: (in $N-m$)

$A$ magnetic needle is placed in a uniform magnetic field and is aligned with the field. The needle is now rotated by an angle of $60^{\circ}$ and the work done is $W$. The torque on the magnetic needle at this position is
