Question
Suppose we are in deep space so that there are no other forces to worry about. I have a 2cm long bar magnet ( this is the 1st magnet ) fixed in place at the origin of a coordinate system with its north pole pointing along the positive x-axis. I am holding an identical magnet at a point 100cm along the positive x-axis with its north pole pointed in the +y direction ( this is the 2nd magnet ). When I turn the 2nd magnet loose it will float freely except for any magnetic interaction with the fixed magnet. What will happen when I let go?
EXPLAIN PLEASE WITH Pics!
Explanation / Answer
e option
it will first rotate pointing South towards north of 1st and then will be pulled towards first due to magnetic attraction force
