Question

A bar magnet of magnetic moment 2 Am2 is free to rotate about a vertical axis passing through its centre. The magnet is then released from rest at east -west position. Find the Kinetic energy of the magnet as it takes north-south position is ________μJ (BH=25μT) (Give integer value)

Open in App
Solution

Kinetic energy of barmagnet in the presence of external magnetic field is , K=MBH[1cosθ]

From the data given in the question, θ=90cos90=0

K=MBH

Substituting the given data we get,

K=2×25×106
=50×106 J
=50 μJ

Accepted answer : 50
