Q. The magnetic moment of a bar magnet is $3.6 \times10^{-3}\,A.m^2$ .Its pole strength is 120 milli amp. m. Its magnetic length is

Moving Charges and Magnetism

Solution:

For a bar magnet, the magnetic moment is
$M=polestrength\times magneticlength$
So the magnetic length will be
$l_{mag}=\frac{M}{m}$
$\Rightarrow l_{mag}=\frac{3.6 \times 10^{- 3}}{120 \times 10^{- 3}}=3\times 10^{- 2} \, m=3 \, cm$
