Four wires,each of length $2.0\,m$,are bent into four loops $P, Q, R$ and $S$ and then suspended in a uniform magnetic field. If the same current is passed in each,then the torque will be maximum on the loop:

  • A
    $P$
  • B
    $Q$
  • C
    $R$
  • D
    $S$

$A$ rectangular conducting loop consists of two wires on two opposite sides of length $l$ joined together by rods of length $d$. The wires are each of the same material but with cross-sections differing by a factor of $2$. The thicker wire has a resistance $R$ and the rods are of low resistance,which in turn are connected to a constant voltage source $V_{0}$. The loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}$ at $45^{\circ}$ to its plane. Find the torque exerted by the magnetic field on the loop about an axis through the centers of the rods.

$(a)$ $A$ 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?

$A$ coil carrying electric current is placed in a uniform magnetic field,then

An electron in the ground state of a hydrogen atom is revolving in an anticlockwise direction in a circular orbit of radius $r$. The atom is placed in a uniform magnetic field $B$ in such a way that the magnetic moment of the orbital electron makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the magnetic field. The torque experienced by the orbital electron is
