Question

Problem 49E

A coil with magnetic moment 1.45 A ⋅ m2 is oriented initially with its magnetic moment antiparallel to a uniform 0.835-T magnetic field. What is the change in potential energy of the coil when it is rotated 180o so that its magnetic moment is parallel to the field?

Solution

Solution 49E

Step 1 of 5:

It is given that, a coil with magnetic moment =1.45 A.is initially oriented with magnetic moment antiparallel to uniform magnetic field B= 0.835 T, let the initial angle between   and B  be and potential energy be .

We need to calculate the change in potential energy , when the coil is rotated by  so that its magnetic moment is parallel to field, that is  and final potential energy be .
