With a standard rectangular bar magnet of length $l$, breadth $b$ $(b \ll l)$ and magnetic moment $M$, the time period of the magnet in a vibration magnetometer is $4 \ s$. If the magnet is cut normal to its length into four equal pieces, the time period (in seconds) with one of the pieces is

The period of oscillation of a magnet of a vibration magnetometer is $2.45 \,s$ at one place and $4.9 \,s$ at the other. The ratio of the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field at the two places is .........

The magnetic needle of a vibration magnetometer makes $12$ oscillations per minute in the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field. When an external short bar magnet is placed at some distance along the axis of the needle in the same line, it makes $15$ oscillations per minute. If the poles of the bar magnet are interchanged, the number of oscillations it makes per minute is

$A$ short bar magnet having magnetic moment $4 \text{ Am}^2$, placed in a vibrating magnetometer, vibrates with a time period of $8 \text{ s}$. Another short bar magnet having a magnetic moment $8 \text{ Am}^2$ vibrates with a time period of $6 \text{ s}$. If the moment of inertia of the second magnet is $9 \times 10^{-2} \text{ kg m}^2$, the moment of inertia of the first magnet is (assume that both magnets are kept in the same uniform magnetic induction field.)

The length of a magnet is large compared to its width and breadth. The time period of its oscillation in a vibration magnetometer is $2 \, s$. The magnet is cut along its length into three equal parts and these three parts are then placed on each other with their like poles together. The time period of this combination will be

$A$ vibration magnetometer is placed at the south pole; then its time period will be
