Dear student

Magnetic length = (5/6) geometric length

Therefore geometric length = 12 cm

Geometric length: Geometric length is the measure of total length of magnet. A bar magnet consist of two equal and opposite magnetic pole separated by a small distance. Poles are not exactly at the ends. The shortest distance between two poles is called effective length and is less than its geometric length.
