Physics Question on Moving charges and magnetism
A rectangular coil, of sides 2cm and 3cm respectively, has 10 turns in it. It carries a current of 1A, and is placed in a uniform magnetic field of 0.2T in such a manner that its plane makes an angle 60∘ with the field direction. The torque on the loop is
A
6.0×10−4Nm
B
6.0×10−5Nm
C
1.2×10−3Nm
D
6.0Nm
Answer
6.0Nm
Explanation
Solution
T=NIABsinθ,θ=60
T=10×1×(2×10−2×3×10−2)×0.2×23
10×6×10−4×3×10−1
63×10−4N−M.
