Physics Question on Magnetism and matter

A short bar magnet has a magnetic moment of 0.48JT10.48\, J\, T^{-1}. The magnitude and direction of magnetic field produced by the magnet at a distance of 10cm10 \,cm from the centre of the magnet on its axis is

A

0.48×104T0.48 \times 10^{-4}\, T along NSN-S direction

B

0.28×104T0.28 \times 10^{-4}\, T along SNS-N direction

C

0.28×104T0.28 \times 10^{-4}\, T along NSN-S direction

D

0.96×104T0.96 \times 10^{-4}\, T along SNS-N direction

Answer

0.96×104T0.96 \times 10^{-4}\, T along SNS-N direction

Explanation

Solution

On the axis of the magnet B=μ04π2md3B = \frac{\mu_{0}}{4\pi} \cdot \frac{2m}{d^{3}} Here, μ04π=107Am2\frac{\mu _{0}}{4\pi } = 10^{-7} \, A\,m^{-2} m=0.48JT1,d=10cm=0.1mm = 0.48 \,J \,T^{-1}, d = 10 \,cm = 0.1 \,m Then, B=107×2×0.48(0.1)3B = \frac{10^{-7}\times 2 \times 0.48 }{\left(0.1\right)^{3}} =0.96×104T= 0.96 \times 10^{-4}\,T, along SNS-N direction.
