Write the equation of potential energy of a bar magnet placed in a uniform magnetic field.

Two short bar magnets $A$ and $B$ (having magnetic moments $M_{1}$ and $M_{2}$ respectively) are kept one above the other with their magnetic axes perpendicular to each other. If their resultant magnetic field at a point on the axis of magnet $A$ is inclined at $45^{\circ}$ with the axis of magnet $A$,then the ratio of magnetic moments $\frac{M_{2}}{M_{1}}$ is $[\tan 45^{\circ} = 1]$.

Points $A$ and $B$ are situated perpendicular to the axis of a $2 \ cm$ long bar magnet at large distances $X$ and $3X$ from its centre on opposite sides. The ratio of the magnetic fields at $A$ and $B$ will be approximately equal to:
