If a bar magnet of moment $10^{-4} Am^2$ is kept in a uniform magnetic field of $12 \times 10^{-3} T$ such that it makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of the magnetic field, then the torque acting on the magnet is:

  • A
    $6 \times 10^{-7} Nm$
  • B
    $6 \times 10^{-5} Nm$
  • C
    $12 \times 10^{-7} Nm$
  • D
    $12 \times 10^{-5} Nm$

Two short bar magnets have their magnetic moments $1.2 \text{ A m}^2$ and $1.0 \text{ A m}^2$. They are placed on a horizontal table parallel to each other at a distance of $20 \text{ cm}$ between their centres,such that their north poles point towards geographic south. They have a common magnetic equatorial line. The horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T}$. The resultant horizontal magnetic induction at the midpoint of the line joining their centers is $\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} = 10^{-7} \text{ N/A}^2\right)$.
