Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 10. (a)

Solution:

  1. (a) Magnetic moment =M; Initial angle through which magnet is turned (θ1)=90 and final angle through which magnet is turned (θ2)= 60. Work done in turning the magnet through 90(W1)=MB(cos0cos90) =MB(10)=MB.

Similarly, W2=MB(cos0cos60)

=MB(112)=MB2

W1=2W2 or n=2.
