Question

With a standard rectangular bar magnet of length (L), breadth (b;b<<1) and magnetic moment M, the time period of the magnet in a vibration magnetometer is 8 s. If the magnet is cut normal to its length into 8 equal pieces, then the time period (in second) with one of the pieces is

Solution

The correct option is C 1 s
The pole strength of each piece when a bar magnet is cut into 8 equal halves perpendicular to it's length is the same as the pole strength of the original bar magnet. However , the magnetic moment of each piece is one eighth to the magnetic moment of the original bar magnet.

And the relation between time and magnetic moment is

T1T2=M2M1
