  • A
    square loop is greater.
  • B
    both the loops is same but not zero.
  • C
    both the loops is zero.
  • D
    circular loop is maximum.

$A$ thin wire of length $L$ made of an insulating material is bent to form a circular loop and a positive charge $q$ is given so that it is distributed uniformly around the circumference of the loop. The loop is then rotated with an angular speed $\omega$ about an axis passing through its centre. If a uniform magnetic field $B$ directed parallel to the plane of the loop is applied,then the magnitude of the magnetic torque on the loop is:

$A$ current-carrying loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field. The torque acting on the loop does not depend upon

$A$ coil in the shape of an equilateral triangle of side $l$ is suspended between the pole pieces of a permanent magnet such that $\vec{B}$ is in the plane of the coil. If due to a current $i$ in the triangle a torque $\tau$ acts on it,the side $l$ of the triangle is

$A$ uniform magnetic field of $2 \times 10^{-3} \ T$ acts along the positive $Y$-direction. $A$ rectangular loop of sides $20 \ cm$ and $10 \ cm$ carrying a current of $5 \ A$ is placed in the $Y-Z$ plane. The current flows in an anticlockwise sense with reference to the negative $X$-axis. Find the magnitude and direction of the torque.

$A$ circular coil of $20$ turns and radius $10\, cm$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field of $0.10\, T$ normal to the plane of the coil. If the current in the coil is $5\, A$,then the torque acting on the coil will be...... $Nm$.
