Two identical small bar magnets each of dipole moment 3 5 J/T are...
Two identical small bar magnets each of dipole moment J/T are placed at a center to center separation of cm, with their axes perpendicular to each other as shown in figure. The value of magnetic field at the point P midway between the magnets is T. The value of is ______.
( Tm/A)

( Tm/A)
Correct answer
0
Step-by-step solution
Let the magnetic moment of each magnet be J/T.
The distance of point P from the center of each magnet is cm m.
For the first magnet (horizontal), point P lies on its axial line. The magnetic field at P due to the first magnet is:
The direction of is along the axis of the first magnet.
For the second magnet (vertical), point P lies on its equatorial line. The magnetic field at P due to the second magnet is:
The direction of is parallel to the axis of the second magnet, which is perpendicular to the axis of the first magnet.
Since and are perpendicular to each other, the net magnetic field at P is:
Substituting the expressions for and :
Substituting the given values T m/A, J/T, and m:
T
T
T
Comparing this with the given value T, we get .
