Question : 14
Total: 25
If the bar magnet in the previous problem is turned around by 180°, where will the new null points be located?
Solution:  
When the bar magnet is turned through 180°, neutral points would lie on equatorial line, so that
B2 =
µ0
4π
M
d23
= BH ... (i)
In the previous question,
B1 =
µ0
4π
2M
d13
= BH ... (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
µ0
4π
M
d23
=
µ0
4π
2M
d13

d23 =
d13
2
=
(14)3
2
or d2 =
