A magnet of magnetic moment M is situated with its axis along the direction of a magnetic field of strength B. The work done in rotating it by an angle of 180o will be

a
-MB
b
+MB
c
0
d
+2MB

detailed solution

Correct option is D

Work done = MB(cos θ1 - cosθ2)θ1=0o and θ2=180o⇒W=MB(cos0o-cos180o)=2MB
