Magnetism Question 244

Question: A magnet of magnetic moment M is rotated through $ 360^{o} $ in a magnetic field H, the work done will be

Options:

A) $ MH $

B) $ 2MH $

C) $ 2\pi MH $

D) Zero

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: D

Solution:

[d] $ U _{i}=-MB,\cos ,0^{o}=-MB $ and $ U _{f}=-MB,\cos ,360^{o}=-MB $ Now, $ W=U _{f}-U _{i}=-MB-(-MB)=0 $
