From: JEE Main 2017 (Offline)

Question

A magnetic needle of magnetic moment 6.7 10-2 A m2 and moment of inertia 7.5 10-6 kg m2 is performing simple harmonic oscillations in a magnetic field of 0.01 T. Time taken for 10 complete oscillations is:

Choose an option

Show full solutionCorrect option: B
Correct answer
B6.65 s

Step-by-step explanation

Given : Magnetic moment, M = 6.7 × 10–2 Am2

Magnetic field, B = 0.01 T

Moment of inertia, I = 7.5 × 10–6 Kgm2

Using, T =

=

= s

Time taken for 10 complete oscillations

t = 10T = 2 × 1.06

= 6.6568 6.65 s
