$A$ magnet is suspended horizontally in the earth's magnetic field. When it is displaced and then released,it oscillates in a horizontal plane with a period $T$. If a piece of wood of the same moment of inertia (about the axis of rotation) as the magnet is attached to the magnet,what would the new period of oscillation of the system become?

  • A
    $\frac{T}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{T}{2}$
  • C
    $\frac{T}{\sqrt{2}}$
  • D
    $T\sqrt{2}$

$A$ thin rectangular magnet suspended freely has a period of oscillation equal to $T$. Now it is broken into two equal halves (each having half of the original length) and one piece is made to oscillate freely in the same field. If its period of oscillation is $T'$,then the ratio $\frac{T'}{T}$ is

$A$ short magnetic needle is pivoted in a uniform magnetic field of induction $1 \text{ T}$. Now, simultaneously another magnetic field of induction $\sqrt{3} \text{ T}$ is applied at right angles to the first field; the needle deflects through an angle $\theta$ whose value is (in $^{\circ}$)

In a uniform magnetic field,a magnetic needle has a magnetic moment $9.85 \times 10^{-2} \, A \cdot m^{2}$ and a moment of inertia $5 \times 10^{-6} \, kg \cdot m^{2}$. If it performs $10$ complete oscillations in $5 \, s$,then the magnitude of the magnetic field is $.... \, mT$. [ Take $\pi^{2} = 9.85$ ]

$A$ bar magnet is oscillating in the earth's magnetic field with time period $T.$ If its mass is increased four times,then its time period will be

$A$ compass needle oscillates $20$ times per minute at a place where the dip is $45^{\circ}$ and the magnetic field is $B_1$. The same needle oscillates $30$ times per minute at a place where the dip is $30^{\circ}$ and magnetic field is $B_2$. Then $B_1: B_2$ is
