Question
A rectangular loop has sides of length 0.06 m and 0.08m. The wire carries a current of 10 A in the directionshown. The loop is in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude0.2 T and directed in the positive x direction. Whatis the magnitude of the torque on the loop? A rectangular loop has sides of length 0.06 m and 0.08m. The wire carries a current of 10 A in the directionshown. The loop is in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude0.2 T and directed in the positive x direction. Whatis the magnitude of the torque on the loop?Explanation / Answer
We know that Torque = N I B A sin = 1 * 10 * 0.2 * ( 0.08 * 0.06) sin (90-30) = 8.313 x 10-3 N-m
