Two identical thin bar magnets each of length $l$ and pole strength $m$ are placed at right angles to each other with north-pole of one touching south-pole of the other, then the magnetic moment of the system is
  1. $\mathrm{ml}$
  2. $2 \mathrm{ml}$
  3. $\sqrt{2} \mathrm{ml}$
  4. $\mathrm{ml} / 2$

Solution

Here, distance between two poles $=\sqrt{2} 1$ Hence, $\mathrm{M}=\mathrm{m} \times \sqrt{2} \mathrm{l}=\sqrt{2} \mathrm{ml}$
