JEE MAIN - Physics (2022 - 26th June Evening Shift - No. 12)

A bar magnet having a magnetic moment of 2.0 $$\times$$ 105 JT$$-$$1, is placed along the direction of uniform magnetic field of magnitude B = 14 $$\times$$ 10$$-$$5 T. The work done in rotating the magnet slowly through 60$$^\circ$$ from the direction of field is :
14 J
8.4 J
4 J
1.4 J

Explanation

$$U = - \overrightarrow M \,.\,\overrightarrow B $$

So $${U_f} - {U_i} = - MB(1 - \cos \theta )$$

$$ = - 14J$$

So $$W = - \Delta U = 14J$$
