A permanent magnet has a magnetic dipole moment of 0.160 A · m2. The magnet is in the presence of an external uniform magnetic field (provided by current-carrying coils) with a magnitude of 0.0800 T, which makes an angle of 29.0° with the orientation of the permanent magnet.(a)What is the magnitude of the torque (in N · m) on the permanent magnet? N.m (b)What is the potential energy (in J) of the system consisting of the permanent magnet and the magnetic field provided by the coils? J
