Following figures show the arrangement of bar magnets in different configurations. Each magnet has magnetic dipole moment Which configuration has highest net magnetic dipole moment?

(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
To determine which configuration has the highest net magnetic dipole moment, we need to consider the vector addition of the dipole moments. Each magnet has a magnetic dipole moment Let's analyze each configuration:(a) The magnets are perpendicular to each other.⢠The net dipole moment is given by the vector sum:(b) The magnets are aligned in the same direction.⢠The net dipole moment is the sum of the magnitudes:(c) The magnets are at an angle of to each other.⢠The net dipole moment is given by:(d) The magnets are at an angle of to each other.⢠The net dipole moment is given by:Comparing the net dipole moments:⢠Configuration (a): ⢠Configuration (b): ⢠Configuration (c): ⢠Configuration (d): Since , configuration (c) has the highest net magnetic dipole moment.Therefore, the correct option is (c).
