Work done to rotate magnetic dipole in magnetic field from angle \(\theta_1\) to \(\theta_2\) is given as
\(W=M B\left(\cos \theta_1-\cos \theta_2\right)\)
Here, \(\theta_1=0^{\circ}\) and \(\theta_2=360^{\circ}\)
\(\therefore \quad W=M B\left(\cos 0^{\circ}-\cos 360^{\circ}\right)=M B(1-1)=0\)
\(W=M B\left(\cos \theta_1-\cos \theta_2\right)\)
Here, \(\theta_1=0^{\circ}\) and \(\theta_2=360^{\circ}\)
\(\therefore \quad W=M B\left(\cos 0^{\circ}-\cos 360^{\circ}\right)=M B(1-1)=0\)
