$A$ tangent galvanometer has a coil of $100$ turns and a radius of $20\, cm$. The horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is $B_H = 3 \times 10^{-5}\, T$. Find the current which gives a deflection of $45^{\circ}$. (in $, A$)

$A$ magnet makes $20$ and $15$ oscillations in $1$ minute at two places where the angles of dip are $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ respectively. What is the ratio of the total magnetic fields at these two places?

$A$ short bar magnet placed in a horizontal plane has its axis aligned along the magnetic north-south direction. Null points are found on the axis of the magnet at $14 \; cm$ from the centre of the magnet. The earth's magnetic field at the place is $0.36 \; G$ and the angle of dip is zero. What is the total magnetic field (in $G$) on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null-point (i.e.,$14 \; cm$) from the centre of the magnet? (At null points,field due to a magnet is equal and opposite to the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field.)

The frequency of oscillation of a small magnet in a magnetic field of induction $B$ is $n$. If the frequency of oscillations of the same magnet in a field of induction $X$ falls to $n/3$, the value of $X$ is
