A small magnet of magnetic moment M, is placed at a distance r from the origin O with its axis parallel to x-axis as shown in Figure. A small coil, of one turn, is
placed on the x-axis, at the same distance from the origin, with the axis of the coil coinciding with x-axis. For what value of current in the coil does a small magnetic needle, kept at origin, remains undeflected? What is the direction of current in the coil?
