Two similar bar magnets \(P\) and \(Q\), each of magnetic moment \(M\), are taken. If \(P\) is cut along its axial line and \(Q\) is cut along its equatorial line, all the four pieces obtained have:
1. equal pole strength           
2. magnetic moment \(\frac{M}{4}\)
3. magnetic moment \(\frac{M}{2}\)  
4. magnetic moment \(M\)
