Answer

$\Delta U=-72.9μJ.$

Work Step by Step

Using Formula, we have $$ \begin{aligned} \Delta U & =-\mu_{\mathrm{rod}} B\left(\cos \theta_f-\cos \theta_i\right) \\ & =-(270 \mathrm{~A} / \mathrm{m})(0.06 \mathrm{~m}) \pi(0.003 \mathrm{~m})^2(0.03 \mathrm{~T})\left[\cos \left(34^{\circ}\right)-\cos \left(68^{\circ}\right)\right] \\ & =-72.9 \mu \mathrm{J} . \end{aligned} $$
