Problem

A small bar magnet at the origin experiences a 4.0 N4.0\,\text{N} magnetic force directed due east because of a nearby magnet and a 3.0 N3.0\,\text{N} magnetic force directed due north because of a second magnet. Ignoring all other interactions, what is the magnitude of the net magnetic force acting on the bar magnet? a) 12.5 N12.5\,\text{N} b) 5.0 N5.0\,\text{N} c) 1.0 N1.0\,\text{N} d) 7.0 N7.0\,\text{N}
