A circular loop of area \( A = 0.01 \text{ m}^2 \) carrying a current of \( I = 10 \text{ A} \), is held in a magnetic field of \( B = 0.1 \text{ T} \) parallel to the plane of the loop. The torque acting on the loop is-

  1. A 0.001 N m
  2. B 0.01 N m
  3. C 0.1 N m
  4. D zero
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) 0.01 N m

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \mu = IA = (10 \text{ A})(0.01 \text{ m}^2) = 0.1 \text{ A m}^2 \) \( \tau = \mu B \sin \theta = (0.1 \text{ A m}^2)(0.1 \text{ T}) \sin 90^\circ = 0.01 \text{ N m} \)
