    Work done in rotating a bar magnet from 0 to angle \[\text{ }\!\!\theta\!\!\text{ }\] is:

    A) \[MH(1-cos\theta )\]

    B)  \[\frac{M}{H}(1-cos\theta )\]

    C)  \[\frac{M}{H}(cos\theta -1)\]

    D)  \[MH(cos\theta -1)\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Key Idea: Work done \[W=\tau d\theta \] Work done in rotating a magnet is given by \[W=\int_{0}^{\theta }{\tau \,d\theta }\] where \[\tau \]is torque and \[d\theta \]angular charge Also,     \[\tau =MH\sin \theta \] \[\therefore \] \[W=\int_{0}^{\theta }{MH\sin \theta \,d}\theta \] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=MH\int_{0}^{\theta }{\sin \theta d\theta }\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=MH[1-cos\theta ]_{0}^{\theta }\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=MH[1-cos\theta +cos0]\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[W=MH[1-cos\theta ]\]
