6. Two identical thin bar magnets,each of length L and the pole strength qm are placed at right angles
to each other,with N pole of one touching the south of the other.Find the magnetic moment of the
system.
7.A short bar magnet of magnetic moment 0.9J/T is placed with its axis at 450 to a uniform magnetic
field. If it experiences a torque of 0.063J (i) calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field and (ii)
what orientation of the bar magnet corresponds to the stable equilibrium in the magnetic field.
8. A bar magnet of magnetic moment 1.5JT−1 lies aligned with the direction of a
uniform magnetic field of 0.22 T.
a)What is the amount of work required by an external torque to turn the magnet so as to align its
magnetic moment: (i) normal to the field direction, (ii) opposite to the field direction?
b)What is the torque on the magnet in cases (i) and (ii)?
9. A short bar magnet placed with its axis at 300 with a uniform external magnetic field
of 0.16T experiences a torque of magnitude 0.032Nm. If the bar magnet is free to rotate, what will be
its potential energies when it is in stable and unstable equilibrium respectively?
10. A magnet is cut into two equal parts. One part is now kept perpendicular over the other so that N
pole coincides with S of other part. If m is the magnetic moment of the original magnet, what would
be the magnetic moment of the combination so formed?
11.A uniform magnetic field gets modified as shown below when two specimens X and Y are placed in it.
Identify specimens X and Y. State the reason for modification of field lines in X and Y.(2)
