Q. Magnetic induction at a point on the axial line of a short bar magnet is B towards east. If the magnet is turned through 90° in clock wise direction, then magnetic induction at the same point is (Neglect earth’s magnetic field)

(a) B/4 towards east

(b) B/2 towards west

(c) B/2 towards north

(d) B/2 towards south

Ans: (c)

Sol: If the magnet is turned through 90° in clock wise direction , the same point lies on equitorial line & the magnetic induction becomes half i.e. B/2 .
