Two current carrying closed loops having equal perimeters are placed in a uniform magnetic field as. Shown in the figure. What is the ratio of magnitude of torque acting on the loop [loop I is equilateral triangle and loop II is square]

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Torque is zero in both the cases therefore the ratio can not be defined
