    The work done in turning a magnet of magnetic moment At by an angle of 90° from the meridian is n times the corresponding work done to turn it through an angle of 60°

    A)  \[n=\frac{1}{2}\]  

    B)                                         \[n=2\]

    C)  \[n=\frac{1}{4}\]                            

    D) \[n=1\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Work done \[W=MB(cos{{\theta }_{1}}-cos{{\theta }_{2}})\] In first case, \[{{\theta }_{1}}=0\]and \[{{\theta }_{2}}={{90}^{0}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{W}_{1}}=MB(cos{{0}^{o}}-cos{{90}^{o}})=MB\] In second case \[{{\theta }_{1}}={{0}^{o}},{{\theta }_{2}}={{60}^{o}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{W}_{2}}=MB(cos{{0}^{o}}-cos{{60}^{o}})\] \[{{W}_{2}}-MB\left( 1-\frac{1}{2} \right)=\frac{MB}{2}\]                 Given \[{{W}_{1}}=n{{W}_{2}}\]                 \[\therefore \]  \[MB=n\frac{MB}{2}\]                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[n=2\]
