A vibration magnetometer placed in magnetic meridian has a small bar magnet. The magnet executes oscillations with a time period of 2 sec in earth’s horizontal magnetic field of 24 microtesla. When a horizontal field of 18 microtesla is produced opposite to the earth’s field by placing a current carrying wire, the new time period of magnet will be

Options

(a) 1 s
(b) 2 s
(c) 3 s
(d) 4 s

Correct Answer:

4 s

Explanation:

Time period of a vibration magnetometer,
T 1 / √B
T₁ / T₂ = √(B₂ / B₁)
T₂ = T₁ √(B₁ / B₂)
2 √ (24 x 10⁻⁶ / 6 x 10⁻⁶) = 4 sec.
