A current of 15.0 mA is maintained in a single circular loop
with a circumference of 3.00 m. A magnetic field of 0.750 T is
directed parallel to the plane of the loop. What is the magnitude
of the torque exerted by the magnetic field on the loop?
N · m
Given that current i=15*10^-3 A
circumfrence of the loop is S=3.0m
hence the radius is r=S/2pi
=0.477m
magnetic field strength is B=0.750T
a)magnetic moment of the loop is
M=iA
=i(pir^2)
=15*10^-3(3.14*0.477^2)
=1.07 mA m2
b)torque T=iAB
=i(pi r^2 )B
=15*10^-3(3.14*0.477^2)0.750
=0.8032 mN m
I hope help you !!
