Magnets \(A\) and \(B\) are geometrically similar but the magnetic moment of \(A\) is twice that of \(B\). If \(T_1\) and \(T_2\) be the time periods of the oscillation when their like poles and unlike poles are kept together respectively, then \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\) will be:
1. \(\frac{1}{3}\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
4. \(\sqrt{3}\)

A thin rectangular magnet suspended freely has a period of oscillation equal to \(T\). Now it is broken into two equal halves (each having half of the original length) and one piece is made to oscillate freely in the same field. If its period of oscillation is \(T'\), then ratio \(\frac{T'}{T}\) is:
1. \(\frac{1}{4}\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
4. \(2\)

A vibration magnetometer consists of two identical bar magnets placed one over the other such that they are perpendicular and bisect each other. The time period of oscillation in a horizontal magnetic field is \(2^{\frac{5}{4}}\) seconds. One of the magnets is removed and if the other magnet oscillates in the same field, then the time period in seconds is:
1. \(2^\frac{1}{4}\)
2. \(2^\frac{1}{2}\)
3. \(2\)
4. \(2^\frac{3}{4}\)

A current-carrying loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field in four different orientations, I, II, III & IV. The decreasing order of potential energy is:

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. \(\frac{2 W}{\sqrt{3}}\)

A short bar magnet of magnetic moment \(0.4\) JT^–1 is placed in a uniform magnetic field of \(0.16\) T. The magnet is in stable equilibrium when the potential energy is:
1. \(0.064\) J
2. zero
3. \(-0.082\) J
4. \(-0.064\) J

Two bar magnets are held together tightly in a vibration magnetometer. When their like poles are together, they make \(20\) oscillations per minute and when their unlike poles are together, they make \(8\) oscillations per minute. The ratio of the magnetic dipole moments of two bar magnets is:
1. \(29:21\)
2. \(6:15\)
3. \(1:6\)
4. \(25:4\)

The bar magnet \(A\) of magnetic moment \(M_A\) is found to oscillate at a frequency twice that of magnet \(B\) of magnetic moment \(M_B\) and the same moment of inertia when placed in a vibration magnetometer. We may say that:

A magnetic needle suspended by a silk thread is vibrating in the earth's magnetic field. If the temperature of the needle is increased, then:
