$A$ circular coil of $16$ turns and radius $10 \;cm$ carrying a current of $0.75 \;A$ rests with its plane normal to an external field of magnitude $5.0 \times 10^{-2} \;T$. The coil is free to turn about an axis in its plane perpendicular to the field direction. When the coil is turned slightly and released,it oscillates about its stable equilibrium with a frequency of $2.0 \;s^{-1}$. What is the moment of inertia of the coil about its axis of rotation?

$A$ circular coil having $200$ turns,$2.5 \times 10^{-4} \text{ m}^2$ area and carrying $100 \mu\text{A}$ current is placed in a uniform magnetic field of $1 \text{ T}$. Initially,the magnetic dipole moment $(\vec{M})$ was directed along $\vec{B}$. The amount of work required to rotate the coil through $90^{\circ}$ from its initial orientation such that $\vec{M}$ becomes perpendicular to $\vec{B}$ is . . . . $\mu\text{J}$.
