Two bar magnets with magnetic moments 2 M and M are fastened together at right angles to each other at their centres to form a crossed system, which can rotate freely about a vertical axis through the centre. The crossed system sets in earth’s magnetic field with magnet having magnetic moment 2M making an angle θ with the magnetic meridian such that

1. θ=tan-113            2. θ=tan-13

3. θ=tan-112              4. θ=tan-134
