Two magnetic dipoles $X$ and $Y$ are placed at a separation $d$,with their axes perpendicular to each other. The dipole moment of $Y$ is twice that of $X$. $A$ particle of charge $q$ is passing through their mid-point $P$,at an angle $\theta = 45^\circ$ with the horizontal line as shown in the figure. What would be the magnitude of the force on the particle at that instant? ($d$ is much larger than the dimensions of the dipole)

  • A
    $\left( {\frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}} \right)\frac{M}{{{{\left( {d/2} \right)}^3}}} \times {q^v}$
  • B
    $0$
  • C
    $\left( {\frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}} \right)\frac{2M}{{{{\left( {d/2} \right)}^3}}} \times {q^v}$
  • D
    $\sqrt 2 \left( {\frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}} \right)\frac{M}{{{{\left( {d/2} \right)}^3}}} \times {q^v}$
