$(a)$ $A$ circular coil of $30$ turns and radius $8.0 \; cm$ carrying a current of $6.0 \; A$ is suspended vertically in a uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitude $1.0 \; T$. The field lines make an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the normal of the coil. Calculate the magnitude of the counter torque that must be applied to prevent the coil from turning.
$(b)$ Would your answer change,if the circular coil in $(a)$ were replaced by a planar coil of some irregular shape that encloses the same area? (All other particulars are also unaltered.)

$A$ closely wound solenoid of $2000$ turns and area of cross-section $1.5 \times 10^{-4} \, m^2$ carries a current of $2.0 \, A$. It is suspended through its centre and perpendicular to its length,allowing it to turn in a horizontal plane in a uniform magnetic field of $5 \times 10^{-2} \, T$ making an angle of $30^o$ with the axis of the solenoid. The torque on the solenoid will be:
