Q113 / 200 · NEET 2024 (Re-NEET) · Physics

The magnetic moment and moment of inertia of a magnetic needle as shown are, respectively, $1.0 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~A} \mathrm{~m}$ and $\frac{10^{-6}}{\pi^2} \mathrm{~kg} \mathrm{~m}^2$. If it completes 10 oscillations in 10 s , the magnitude of the magnetic field is Figure

  • A
    0.4 T
  • B
    4 T
  • Correct answer
    C
    0.4 mT
  • D
    4 mT

Solution

Time period of oscillation of magnet inside the magnetic field $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{1}{M B}}$ $T=\frac{t}{n}=\frac{10}{10}=1 \mathrm{~s}$ $1=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{10^{-6}}{\pi^2 \times 1.0 \times 10^{-2} \times B}}$ $\frac{1}{4}=\frac{10^{-4}}{B} \Rightarrow B=0.4 \mathrm{mT}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
