A magnet is suspended in such a way that it oscillates in the horizontal plane. It makes 20 oscillations per minute at a place where dip angle is 30o and 15 oscillations per minute at a place where dip angle is 60o. The ratio of total earth's magnetic field at the two places is:

1. 33:8
2. 16:93
3. 4:9
4. 23:9

A bar magnet A of magnetic moment MA is found to oscillate at a frequency twice that of magnet B having identical size as magnet A, of magnetic moment MB when placed in a vibrating magneto-meter. We may say that

(1) MA=2MB                 

(2) MA = 8MB

(3) MA = 4MB                 

(4) MB = 8MA

Magnets \(A\) and \(B\) are geometrically similar but the magnetic moment of \(A\) is twice that of \(B\). If \(T_1\) and \(T_2\) be the time periods of the oscillation when their like poles and unlike poles are kept together respectively, then \(\frac{T_1}{T_2}\) will be:
1. \(\frac{1}{3}\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
4. \(\sqrt{3}\)

A thin rectangular magnet suspended freely has a period of oscillation equal to \(T\). Now it is broken into two equal halves (each having half of the original length) and one piece is made to oscillate freely in the same field. If its period of oscillation is \(T'\), then ratio \(\frac{T'}{T}\) is:
1. \(\frac{1}{4}\)
2. \(\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}}\)
3. \(\frac{1}{2}\)
4. \(2\)
