An atom with net magnetic moment $$\overrightarrow \mu $$ and net angular momentum $$\overrightarrow {\bf{L}} \left( {\overrightarrow \mu = \gamma \overrightarrow {\bf{L}} } \right)$$ is kept in a uniform magnetic induction $$\overrightarrow {\bf{B}} = {B_0}{\bf{\hat k}}.$$ The magnetic moment $$\overrightarrow \mu \left( { = {\mu _x}} \right)$$ is
A. $$\frac{{{d^2}{\mu _x}}}{{d{t^2}}} + \gamma {B_0}{\mu _x} = 0$$
B. $$\frac{{{d^2}{\mu _x}}}{{d{t^2}}} + \gamma {B_0}\frac{{d{\mu _x}}}{{dt}} + {\mu _x} = 0$$
C. $$\frac{{{d^2}{\mu _x}}}{{d{t^2}}} + {\gamma ^2}B_0^2{\mu _x} = 0$$
D. $$\frac{{{d^2}{\mu _x}}}{{d{t^2}}} + 2\gamma {B_0}{\mu _x} = 0$$
