Question
The magnetometer of the previous problem is used with the same magnet in $\tan-\text{B}$ position. Where should the magnet be placed to produce a 37° deflection of the needle?

Answer

Given $\frac{\text{M}}{\text{B}_\text{H}}=40\text{A-m}^2/\text{T}$
Since the magnet is short ‘ℓ’ can be neglected
So, $\frac{\text{M}}{\text{B}_\text{H}}=\frac{4\pi}{\mu_0}\times\frac{\text{d}^3}{2}=40$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}^3=\frac{40\times4\pi\times10^{-7}\times2}{4\pi}=8\times10^{-6}$
$\Rightarrow\text{d}=2\times10^{-2}\text{m}=2\text{cm}$
with the northpole pointing towards south.

The phenomenon of bending ofli ght around the sharp corners and the spreading of light within the geometrical shadow of the opaque obstacles is called diffraction of light.

The lens maker's formula relates the focallength of a lens to the refractive index of the lens material and the radii of curvature of its two surfaces. This formula is called so because it is used by manufacturers to design lenses of required focal length from a glass of given refractive index.
If the object is placed at infinity, the image will be fanned at focus for both double convex lens and double concave lens.
Therefore, lens maker's formula is, $\frac{1}{\text{f}}=[\frac{\mu_2-\mu_1}{\mu_1}][\frac{1}{\text{R}_1}-\frac{1}{\text{R}_2}]$
When lens is placed in air, $\mu_1=1$ and $\mu_2=\mu.$ The lens maker formula takes the form, $\frac{1}{\text{f}}=(\mu-1)[\frac{1}{\text{R}_1}-\frac{1}{\text{R}_2}]$

When the atomic dipoles are aligned partially or fully, there is a net magnetic moment in the direction of the field in any small volume of the material. The actual magnetic field inside material placed in magnetic field is the sum of the applied magnetic field and the magnetic field due to magnetisation. This field is called magnetic intensity (H).
$\text{H}=\frac{\text{B}}{\mu_0}-\text{M}$
where Mis the magnetisation of the material, flo is the permittivity of vacuum and B is the total magnetic field. The measure that tells us how a magnetic material responds to an external field is given by a dimensionless quantity is appropriately called the magnetic susceptibility: for a certain class of magnetic materials, intensity of magnetisation is directly proportional to the magnetic intensity.

  1. Volume of sample per unit magnetic moment.
