$A$ bar magnet is hung by a thin cotton thread in a uniform horizontal magnetic field and is in equilibrium state. The energy required to rotate it by $60^{\circ}$ is $W$. Now,the torque required to keep the magnet in this new position is

  • A
    $\frac{\sqrt{3} W}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{2W}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $\frac{W}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • D
    $\sqrt{3} W$

There are two current-carrying planar coils made from identical wires of length $L$. $C_1$ is circular (radius $R$) and $C_2$ is square (side $a$). They are constructed such that they have the same frequency of oscillation when placed in the same uniform magnetic field $B$ and carry the same current $I$. Find $a$ in terms of $R$.
