Vibration Magnetometer

Two bar magnets 'P\mathrm{P}' and 'Q\mathrm{Q}' are kept in uniform magnetic field 'B\mathrm{B}' with magnetic moments 'MP\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{P}}' and 'MQ\mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{Q}}' respectively. Magnet 'P' is oscillating with frequency twice that of magnet 'Q'. If the moment of inertia of the magnet 'P' is twice that of magnet 'Q' then

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. f=12πMBI⇒M∝f2If = \frac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\frac{MB}{I}} \Rightarrow M \propto f^2 I (same BB)
  2. MPMQ=(fPfQ)2IPIQ=4×2=8\frac{M_P}{M_Q} = \left(\frac{f_P}{f_Q}\right)^2\frac{I_P}{I_Q} = 4 \times 2 = 8
  3. So the answer is (c) MP=8MQM_P = 8M_Q.
