5.7 a) A bar magnet of magnetic moment 1.5 J T ^{-1}  lies aligned with the direction of a uniform magnetic field of 0.22 T.

Given.

Magnetic moment, M= 1.5 J T^{-1}

Magnetic field strength, B= 0.22 T

Now,

The initial angle between the axis and the magnetic field \theta_1 = 0°

Final angle \theta_2= 90°

We know that the work required to make the magnetic moment normal to the direction of the magnetic field is given as follows:

W = - MB ( cos \theta_2 - cos \theta_1)

\implies W = - (1.5)(0.22) ( cos 90^{\circ} - cos 0^{\circ}) = -0.33(0-1)
  = 0.33 J
