Magnetic Properties of Matter question

2019 · 8 Apr · Shift 2 · Q53

JEE MainPhysicsMagnetic Properties of MatterMCQ+4 / −1
Two magnetic dipoles X and Y are placed at a separation d, with their axes perpendicular to each other. The dipole moment of Y is twice that of X. A particle of charge q is passing, through their midpoint P, at angle q = 45° with the horizontal line, as shown in figure. What would be the magnitude of force on the particle at that instant ? (d is much larger than the dimensions of the dipole) JEE Main 2019 (Online) 8th April Evening Slot Physics - Magnetic Properties of Matter Question 51 English

Correct answer: D

  1. Magnetic field due to a dipole

For a magnetic dipole of moment mmm:

  • On its axial line, Baxial=(μ04π)2mr3B_{\text{axial}}=\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\right)\frac{2m}{r^3}Baxial​=(4πμ0​​)r32m​
  • On its equatorial line, Bequatorial=(μ04π)mr3B_{\text{equatorial}}=\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\right)\frac{m}{r^3}Bequatorial​=(4πμ0​​)r3m​

Here, the midpoint PPP is at distance r=d2r=\frac d2r=2d​ from each dipole.


  1. Field at PPP due to dipole XXX

From the figure description, dipole XXX has its axis horizontal, and dipole YYY has its axis vertical, with axes perpendicular.

At midpoint PPP, for dipole XXX, the point lies on its axial line. If dipole moment of XXX is MMM, then BX=(μ04π)2M(d/2)3B_X=\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\right)\frac{2M}{(d/2)^3}BX​=(4πμ0​​)(d/2)32M​ Direction: along the horizontal axis.


  1. Field at PPP due to dipole YYY

Dipole YYY has moment twice that of XXX, so mY=2Mm_Y=2MmY​=2M At PPP, the point lies on the equatorial line of dipole YYY. Hence BY=(μ04π)2M(d/2)3B_Y=\left(\frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}\right)\frac{2M}{(d/2)^3}BY​=(4πμ0​​)(d/2)32M​ Direction: opposite to the dipole moment direction, i.e. along the horizontal axis opposite to BXB_XBX​.

So the two fields are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction: BX=BYB_X=B_YBX​=BY​ therefore, Bnet=0B_{\text{net}}=0Bnet​=0


  1. Force on the moving charge

Magnetic force on a charge is F⃗=q v⃗×B⃗\vec F=q\,\vec v\times \vec BF=qv×B Since the net magnetic field at PPP is zero, F⃗=q v⃗×0⃗=0\vec F=q\,\vec v\times \vec 0=0F=qv×0=0 Hence magnitude of force is F=0F=0F=0


  1. Option check
  • A: Non-zero ❌
  • B: Non-zero ❌
  • C: Non-zero ❌
  • D: 000 ✅

Therefore, the correct answer is D.
