COMEDK · Physics · 21. Magnetic Effects of Current
A circular loop of area \(0.04 \mathrm{~m}^2\) carrying a current of \(10 \mathrm{~A}\) is held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field induction \(0.4 \mathrm{~T}\) Then the torque acting on the circular loop is :
- A 0.04 Nm
- B 0.02 Nm
- C zero
- D 0.004 Nm
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) zero
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The torque \(\vec{\tau}\) acting on a current loop in a magnetic field is given by the formula \(\vec{\tau} = \vec{m} \times \vec{B}\), where \(\vec{m}\) is the magnetic dipole moment and \(\vec{B}\) is the magnetic field induction. The magnitude of the torque is given by…
