Problem

A miniature bar magnet produces a magnetic field of 50 μT50\,\mu\text{T} at a distance of 5.0 cm5.0\,\text{cm} along its axis. How far from the magnet’s center (along the same axis) must you move so that the field magnitude drops to 2.0 μT2.0\,\mu\text{T}? Give your answer to two significant figures.
