A bar magnet is hung by a thin cotton thread in a uniform horizontal magnetic field and is in the equilibrium state. The energy required to rotate it by \(60^{\circ}\) is \(W\)Now the torque required to keep the magnet in this new position is:
1. \(\frac{W}{\sqrt{3}}\) 
2. \(\sqrt{3} W\)
3. \(\frac{\sqrt{3} W}{2}\) 
4. \(\frac{2 W}{\sqrt{3}}\)

Two identical bar magnets are fixed with their centres at a distance \(d\) apart. A stationary charge \(Q\) is placed at \(P\) in between the gap of the two magnets at a distance \(D\) from the centre \(O\) as shown in the figure.

                

The force on the charge \(Q\) is:
1. zero.
2. directed along with \(OP\).
3. directed along with \(PO\).
4. directed perpendicular to the plane of the paper.

If θ1 and θ2 be the apparent angles of dip observed in two vertical planes at right angles to each other, then the true angle of dip θ is given by 

(1) cot2θ=cot2θ1+cot2θ2

(2) tan2θ=tan2θ1+ tan2θ2

(3) cot2θ=cot2θ1-tan2θ2

(4) tan2θ=tan2θ1-tan2θ2
