5.13 A short bar magnet placed in a horizontal plane has its axis aligned along the magnetic north-south direction. Null points are found on the axis of the magnet at 14 cm from the centre of the magnet. The earth's magnetic field at the place is 0.36 G and the angle of dip is zero. What is the total magnetic field on the normal bisector of the magnet at the same distance as the null–point (i.e., 14 cm) from the centre of the magnet? (At null points, field due to a magnet is equal and opposite to the horizontal component of earth's magnetic field.)

There are various important topics in the physics chapter 5 class 12 magnetism and matter. These topics are important for both cases, conceptual and numerical questions. Read below:

• Magnetism 
• Bar Magnet as an Electromagnet
• Magnetic Field Due to Magnetic Dipoles
• Type of Magnetic Materials: Ferromag

In JEE Main exam, it is a significant chapter. There can be 6 to 8 questions from this chapter, a weightage of nearly 6.6%.

The exact weightage varies from year to year. This chapter comes under a broader category which can be "Magnetism" or "Modern Physics". In NEET exam, the chapter's weightage is low to moderate and there can be 6-7% of questions from this chapter.

The chapter is one of the small and easy chapter of class 12 Physics. It includes - properties of magnetic materials, magnetic dipoles, and Earth's magnetic field.

When the electric charges moves, it creates attraction or repulsion. It creates magnetic forces and fields and called magnetism. The term "magnetism and matter" talks about the way magnetic forces and matter interact.
