Question

Derivation of magnetic field on equitorial line of dipole

Answer 1

The shortest distance between the two poles of a bar magnet is the magnetic length of the bar magnet (2l). The axial line of a bar magnet is a straight line passing through its centre and its poles. The equatorial line of a bar magnet is a straight line perpendicular to its axial line and passing through its centre. The magnetic moment M of a magnet is defined as the product of its magnetic length 2l and its pole strength m. Therefore, M = 2lm. The SI unit of magnetic moment M is ampere metre-square (Am2) or weber metre (Wb.m). The magnetic moment of a bar magnet is a vector quantity whose direction is along its axial line, from its south pole towards its north pole.

 

The magnetic induction B at a point in the magnetic field is equal to the force experienced by a unit north pole placed at that point. If an isolated north pole of strength m placed at a point in a magnetic field experiences a force F due to the magnetic field, then magnetic induction B at that point in the magnetic field is given by


B = F/m  ------ (1)

Magnetic induction at a point along the equatorial line of a bar magnet

NS is the bar magnet of length 2l and pole strength m. P is a point on the equatorial line at a distance d from its mid point O (Fig.).





Figure 1 See Upward






Magnetic induction (B1) at P due to north pole of the magnet,

B1 = μ0/4π  .  m/NP2 along NP

= μ0/4π  .  m/(d2+l2) along NP

 

NP2 = NO2 + OP2

Magnetic induction (B2) at P due to south pole of the magnet,

B2 = μ0/4π  .  m/PS2 along PS

= μ0/4π  .  m/(d2+l2) along PS




 Figure 2 See Upward





Resolving B1 and B2 into their horizontal and vertical components.

Vertical components B1 sin θ and B2 sin θ are equal and opposite and therefore cancel each other (Fig.).

The horizontal components B1 cos θ and B2 cos θ will get added along PT.

Resultant magnetic induction at P due to the bar magnet is

B = B1 cos θ + B2 cos θ. (along PT)

After apply B1 and B2

B = = μ0/4π  .  M/d3

The direction of ?B? is along PT parallel to NS.

 

On an axial line

B=μ0/4π*2Mr/(r^2-l^2)^2

 

If r<<1

B=μ0/4π*2M/r^3
