Two short bar magnets have their magnetic moments $1.2 \text{ A m}^2$ and $1.0 \text{ A m}^2$. They are placed on a horizontal table parallel to each other at a distance of $20 \text{ cm}$ between their centres,such that their north poles point towards geographic south. They have a common magnetic equatorial line. The horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic field is $3.6 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T}$. The resultant horizontal magnetic induction at the midpoint of the line joining their centers is $\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4 \pi} = 10^{-7} \text{ N/A}^2\right)$.

The rate of change of torque $\tau$ with respect to deflection $\theta$ is maximum for a magnet suspended freely in a uniform magnetic field of induction $B$ when $\theta = ........ ^\circ$.

Points $A$ and $B$ are situated perpendicular to the axis of a small bar magnet at large distances $x$ and $3x$ from its centre on opposite sides. The ratio of the magnetic fields at $A$ and $B$ will be approximately equal to

$A$ bar magnet,when placed at an angle of $30^o$ to the direction of a magnetic field of induction $5 \times 10^{-2} \,T$,experiences a torque of $25 \times 10^{-6} \,N-m$. If the length of the magnet is $5 \,cm$,what is its pole strength?

If a bar magnet of moment $10^{-4} Am^2$ is kept in a uniform magnetic field of $12 \times 10^{-3} T$ such that it makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of the magnetic field, then the torque acting on the magnet is:
