Two short magnets, placed along the same axis with their like poles facing each other, repel each other with a force, which varies inversely as
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Both the magnets are placed in the field of one another, hence potential energy of dipole (2) is
By using 
, force on magnet (2) is
Since
