$A$ metal wire of length '$L$' is bent to form a circular coil of number of turns '$n$'. The coil is placed in a magnetic field '$B$' and a current '$I$' is passed through the coil. The maximum torque acting on the coil is:

  • A
    $\frac{BIL^{2}}{4 \pi n}$
  • B
    $\frac{BIL^{2}}{2 \pi n}$
  • C
    $\frac{B^{2} IL}{2 \pi n}$
  • D
    $\frac{B^{2} IL}{4 \pi n}$

$A$ thin stiff insulated metal wire is bent into a circular loop with its two ends extending tangentially from the same point of the loop. The wire loop has mass $m$ and radius $r$ and it is in a uniform vertical magnetic field $B_0$,as shown in the figure. Initially,it hangs vertically downwards,because of acceleration due to gravity $g$,on two conducting supports at $P$ and $Q$. When a current $I$ is passed through the loop,the loop turns about the line $PQ$ by an angle $\theta$ given by

$(a)$ $A$ current-carrying circular loop lies on a smooth horizontal plane. Can a uniform magnetic field be set up in such a manner that the loop turns around itself (i.e.,turns about the vertical axis)?
$(b)$ $A$ current-carrying circular loop is located in a uniform external magnetic field. If the loop is free to turn,what is its orientation of stable equilibrium? Show that in this orientation,the flux of the total field (external field $+$ field produced by the loop) is maximum.
$(c)$ $A$ loop of irregular shape carrying current is located in an external magnetic field. If the wire is flexible,why does it change to a circular shape?

The radius of a circular ring of wire is $R$ and it carries a current of $I \, A$. At its centre,a smaller ring of radius $r$ with current $i$ and $N$ turns is placed. Assuming that the planes of the two rings are perpendicular to each other and the magnetic induction produced at the centre of the bigger ring is constant,then the torque acting on the smaller ring will be:

$A$ 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.

$A$ single circular loop of radius $1.00 \, m$ carries a current of $10.0 \, mA$. It is placed in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude $0.500 \, T$ that is directed parallel to the plane of the loop as shown in the figure. The magnitude of the torque exerted on the loop by the magnetic field is:
