Question 1.
Answer the following questions regarding earth’s magnetism:

1. A vector needs three quantities for its specification. Name the three independent quantities conventionally used to specify the earth’s magnetic field.
2. The angle of dip at a location in southern India is about 18°. Would you expect a greater or lesser dip angle in Britain?
3. If you make a map of magnetic field lines at Melbourne in Australia, would the lines seen to go into the ground or come out of the ground?
4. In which direction would a compass free to move in the vertical plane point to, if located right on the geomagnetic north or south pole?
5. The earth’s field is claimed roughly approximately, the field due to a dipole magnetic moment 8 × 10²² JT^-1 located at the centre. Check your or¬der of magnitude of this number same way.
6. Geologists claim that besides the main magnetic NS poles, there are several local poles on the earth’s surface oriented in different directions. How is such a thing possible at all?

Answer:
1. Magnetic declination, angle of dip, horizontal component of earth’s magnetic field.

2. Greater angle of dip in Britain, (it is about 70°), because Britain is closer to the magnetic north pole.

3. Field lines of B due to the earth’s magnetism would seem to come out of the ground.

4. A compass is free to move in a horizontal plane, while the earth’s field is exactly vertical at the magnetic poles. So the compass can point in any direction there.

5. Use the formula for field B on the normal bisector of a dipole of magnetic moment m.
B = μ₀/4π  M/r³
Take M = 8 × 10²² JT^-1
r = 6.4 × 10⁶ m;
one gets B = 0.3G
which checks with the orde of magnitude of the observed field on the earth.

6. The earth’s field is only approximately a dipole field. Local N-S poles may arise due to, for instance, magnetized minerals deposits.

Question 2.
A short bar magnet of magnetic moment m = 0.32JT^-1 is placed in a uniform external magnetic field of 0.15T. If the bar is free to rotate in the plane of the field, which orientations would correspond to its

• stable and
• unstable equilibrium? What is the potential energy of the magnet in each case?

Answer:
Given M=0.32JT^-1 B = 0.15T, U = ?

Question 3.
A closely wound solenoid of 800 turns and area of cross-section 2.5 × 10^-4 m² carries a current of 3.0A. Explain the sense in which the solenoid acts like a bar magnet. What is its associated magnetic moment?
Answer:
Given N = 800, A = 2.5 × 10^-4 m², I = 3.0A, M = ?
Since M = NIA
∴ M = 800 × 3 × 2.5 × 10^-4
or M = 0.60JT^-1 along the axis of the solenoid

Question 4.
A closely wound solenoid of 2000 turns and area of cross-section 1.6 × 10^-4 m², carrying a current of 4.0A, is suspended through its centre allowing it to turn in a horizontal plane.

1. What is the magnetic moment associated with the solenoid?
2. What is the force and torque on the solenoid if a uniform horizontal magnetic field of 7.5 × 10^-2 is set up at an angle of 30° with the axis of the sole¬noid?

Answer:
1. Magnetic dipole moment,
M = nIA
= 2000 × 4.0 × 1.6 × 10^-4 = 1.28JT^-1

2. Net force = 0
Torque, τ = MB sinθ
= 1.28 × 7.5 × 10^-2 × sin 30°
= 1.28 × 7.5 × 10^-3 × 1/2 = 4.8 × 10^-2 Nm.

Question 5.
Answer the following questions:

1. Why does a paramagnetic sample display greater magnetization (for the same magnetizing field) when cooled?
2. Why is diamagnetism, in contrast, almost independent of temperature?
3. If a toroid used bismuth for its core, will the field in the core be (slightly) greater or (slightly) less than when the core is empty?
4.  If the permeability of a ferromagnetic material independent of the magnetic field? If not is it more for lower or higher fields?
5. Magnetic field lines are always nearly normal to the surface of a ferromagnet at every point.
6. Would the maximum possible magnetisation of a paramagnetic sample be of the same order of magnitude as the magnetisation of a ferromagnet?

Answer:
1. The tendency to disrupt the alignment of dipoles (with the magnetising field) arising from random thermal motion is reduced at lower temperatures.

2. The induced dipole moment in a diamagnetic sample is always opposite to the magnetising field, no matter what the internal motion of the atom is.

3. Slightly less, since bismuth is diamagnetic.

4. No, as is evident from the magnetisation curve. From the slope of the magnetisation curve, it is clear that μ is greater for lower fields.

5. Proof of the important fact (of much practical use) is based on boundary conditions of magnetic fields (B & H) at the interface of two media. (When one of the media has μ>>1, the field lines meet this medium nearly normally).

6. Yes. Apart from minor differences in the strength of the individual atomic dipoles of two different materials, a paramagnetic sample with saturated magnetisation will have the same order of magnetisation. But of course, saturation requires impractically high magnetising fields.
