A bar magnet of magnetic moment 3 J/T lies aligned with the directions of a uniform magnetic field of 0.2 T. The amount of work, required so as to align its magnetic moment opposite to the field direction is :

  1. A 1.2 J
  2. B 0.6 J
  3. C zero
  4. D -0.6J
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 1.2 J

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(W = MB (\cos \theta_1 - \cos \theta_2)\) \(W = (3)(0.2) (\cos 0^\circ - \cos 180^\circ)\) \(W = 0.6 (1 - (-1))\) \(W = 1.2 \text{ J}\)
