\begin{aligned} \text { work }=-M B\left(\cos \theta_2 \cos \theta_2\right) \\ \end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad a=-M B\left(\cos 30^{\circ}-\cos 0^{\circ}\right) \\\end{aligned}

\begin{aligned} & \Rightarrow \quad a=-M B \times\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=-\frac{\sqrt{3} M B}{2}+M B \\\\\end{aligned}                                                                                    ------(1)

                                                      \begin{aligned} & =\frac{(2-\sqrt{3}) B M}{2} \\\end{aligned}

so  \begin{aligned} a=M B \sin 30^{\circ} \\\end{aligned}

         \begin{aligned} =\frac{-2 a}{(2-\sqrt{3})} \times \frac{1}{2} \\\end{aligned}    (From equation (1))

         \begin{aligned} =\frac{a}{(-\sqrt{3}+2)}=\frac{a}{\sqrt{3}-2} \\\end{aligned}, (Left side of                                                                          equilibrium)
