The magnetic potential energy of a dipole with m = 0.4 A m² in a field B = 0.7 T at 180° is:
Explanation
Given:
The magnetic potential energy of a dipole with m = 0.4 A m² in a field B = 0.7 T at 180° is:
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
U_m = -m B cosθ.
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
Given: m = 0.4 A m², B = 0.7 T, θ = 180°, cos 180° = -1 . Substitute: U_m = -0.4 × 0.7 × (-1) = 0.28 J .
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
