Two short bar magnets of magnetic moments $M$ and $\sqrt{3} M$ are joined like a cross (+). This cross is suspended from its centre with its plane horizontal in the earth's magnetic field. When the cross comes to equilibrium,the angle made by the weaker magnet with the earth's magnetic field $B_H$ is (in $^{\circ}$)

  • A
    $30$
  • B
    $45$
  • C
    $75$
  • D
    $60$
