The square loop $ABCD$,carrying a current $i$,is placed in a uniform magnetic field $B$,as shown. The loop can rotate about the axis $XX'$. The plane of the loop makes an angle $\theta$ $(\theta < 90^o)$ with the direction of $B$. Through what angle will the loop rotate by itself before the torque on it becomes zero?

  • A
    $\theta$
  • B
    $90^o - \theta$
  • C
    $90^o + \theta$
  • D
    $180^o - \theta$
