A rectangular coil of sides `8cm` and `6cm` haivng 2000 turns and carrying a current of `200mA` is placed in a uniform magnetic field of `0*2T` directed along the positive x-axis. (a) What is the maximum torque the coil can experience? In which orientation does it experience the maximum Torque? (b) For which orientations of the coil is the torque zero? When is this equilibrium stable and unstable?
