A current loop of magnetic dipole moment...

A current loop of magnetic dipole moment `vec(M)` is placed in uniform magnetic field B. Initially the angle between `vec(M) and vec(B) " is " theta_(1)`. Find the work done by magnetic field as the angle is increased from `theta_(1) " to " theta_(2)`

To find the work done by the magnetic field as the angle between the magnetic dipole moment \(\vec{M}\) and the magnetic field \(\vec{B}\) is increased from \(\theta_1\) to \(\theta_2\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Torque on the Current Loop The torque \(\tau\) acting on a current loop with a magnetic dipole moment \(\vec{M}\) in a magnetic field \(\vec{B}\) is given by the formula: \[ \tau = \vec{M} \times \vec{B} = MB \sin \theta \] where \(M\) is the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment, \(B\) is the magnitude of the magnetic field, and \(\theta\) is the angle between \(\vec{M}\) and \(\vec{B}\). ...
