A rectangular loop carrying a current i ...

A rectangular loop carrying a current i is placed in a uniform magnetic field B. The area enclosed by the loop is A. If there are n turns in the loop, the torque acting on the loop is given by

A

`ni (hatA . hatB)`

B

`(nBA)/(i)`

C

`ni(A xx B)`

D

`(iBA)/(n)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

When a current carrying coil is placed in a magentic filed , the coil experienced a torque given by
`tau = M xx B`
Where , M = magentic moment = niA
`therefore" " tau = ni (Axx B)`
Where , n = number of turns,
i= current flowing in coil
and A = area of coil .
