Two small bar magnets are placed in the air at a distance r apart. The magnetic force between them is proportional to:

A short magnetic dipole is placed at the origin with its dipole movement directed along the \(+x\text-\)axis. If magnetic field induction at a point \(P(r,0)\) is \(B\hat{i}\), the magnetic field induction at point \(Q(0,2r)\) will be:

2. \(\text{Am}\)
3. \(\frac{\text{A}^2}{\text{m}}\)
4. \(\frac{\text{A}^2}{\text{m}^2}\)

A small bar magnet is placed with its north pole facing the magnetic north pole. The neutral points are located at a distance r from its centre. If the magnet is rotated by 180^o, the neutral point shall be obtained at a distance of:

2. \(\sqrt{2}r\)
3. \(2^{\frac{1}{3}}r\)
4. \(\frac{r}{2\sqrt{2}}\)

A bar magnet of length l and magnetic dipole moment M is bent to form an arc which subtends an angle of $120°$ at centre. The new magnetic dipole moment will be

The magnetic field at a point \(x\) on the axis of a small bar magnet is equal to the field at a point \(y\) on the equator of the same magnet. The ratio of the distances of \(x\) and \(y\) from the centre of the magnet is:
1. \(2^{-3}\)
2. \(2^{\frac{-1}{3}}\)
