Suppose we want to verify the analogy between electrostatic and magnetostatic by an explicit experiment. Consider the motion of
$(i)$ electric dipole $\vec{p}$ in an electrostatic field $\vec{E}$ and
$(ii)$ magnetic dipole $\vec{M}$ in a magnetic field $\vec{B}$. Write down a set of conditions on $\vec{E}, \vec{B}, \vec{p}, \vec{M}$ so that the two motions are verified to be identical. (Assume identical initial conditions.)

$A$ square coil of side $10 \; cm$ consists of $20$ turns and carries a current of $12 \; A$. The coil is suspended vertically and the normal to the plane of the coil makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of a uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitude $0.80 \; T$. What is the magnitude of torque (in $N \; m$) experienced by the coil?
