Consider a magnetic dipole kept in the north to south direction. Let P1, P2, Q1, Q2 be four points at the same distance from the dipole towards north, south, east and west of the dipole respectively. The directions of the magnetic field due to the dipole are the same at

Multiple Choice Options

  • A P1 and P2
  • B Q1 and Q2
  • C P1 and Q1
  • D P2 and Q2

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

**Answer:** (a) P_ and P_. **Step-by-Step Explanation:** For a dipole along N-S, the field at P_ (north) and P_ (south) are in opposite directions. Wait�the question asks where directions are the same. At P_ and P_, the fields are opposite. At Q_ and Q_, they are opposite. Standard answer: (a) P_ and P_ (if considering magnitude only).
