A thin bar magnet of length 2L is bent at the mid-point so that the angle between them is 60 o . The new length of the magnet is
Options
- AL 2 3
- B3 L 2
- CL
- D2 L 3
Correct answer
C. L
Step-by-step solution
On bending the magnet, the angle between two parts of the magnet is expressed in diagram below Now, the minimum distance between the ends P and R = L sin ⁡ 30 o + L sin ⁡ 30 o = 2 L sin ⁡ 30 o   = 2 L sin ⁡ 30 o = 2 L × 1 2 = L
