Solution

The correct option is A 2

The work done in turning a magnet of magnetic moment M by an angle of 900 from the meridian is

w1=MB(cosθ1cosθ2)

w1=MB(cos0cos90)

w1=MB.......(1)

Similarly, The work done in turning a magnet of magnetic moment M by an angle of 600 from the meridian is

w2=MB(cos0cos60)

w2=MB2........(2)

It is given that

w1=nw2

MB=nMB2

n=2
