$A$ long vertical wire in which a current is flowing produces a neutral point with the Earth's magnetic field at a distance of $5 \ cm$ from the wire. If the horizontal component of the Earth's magnetic induction is $0.18 \ G$,then the current in the wire is: (in $A$)

The time period of oscillation of a freely suspended bar magnet with usual notations is given by

Two bar magnets $A$ and $B$ are placed one over the other and are allowed to vibrate in a vibration magnetometer. They make $20$ oscillations per minute when the similar poles of $A$ and $B$ are on the same side, while they make $15$ oscillations per minute when their opposite poles lie on the same side. If $M_A$ and $M_B$ are the magnetic moments of $A$ and $B$ and if $M_A > M_B$, the ratio of $M_A$ and $M_B$ is

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
