A magnetic needle of magnetic moment 6.7 × 10-2 Amand moment of inertia 7.5 × 10-6 kg  m2 is performing simple harmonic oscillations in a magnetic field of 0.01 T. Time taken for 10 complete oscillations is


A) 8.89 s

B) 6.98 s

C) 8.76 s

D) 6.65 s

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Time period of oscillations is 

  $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{I}{MB}}$

  $T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{7.5\times 10^{-6}}{6.7\times 10^{-2}\times 0.01}}$

     =0.665 s

Hence , time for 10 oscillations is t= 6.65 s
