A current carrying loop of radius r carries a current I . It is placed in a magnetic field B_0 such that the plane of the coil is perpendicular to the magnetic field. The net force on the coil is

The plane of a circular coil is at right angles to the magnetic meridian. If the number of turns in the coil equals 2, radius of the coil equals 0.078 m and current 2.8 A, then calculate the net magnetic field at the centre for clockwise and anticlockwise currents. Given : B_(u)=4 times 10^(-5)T.

A current passing through a circular coil of two turns produces a magnetic field B at its centre. The coil is then rewound so as to have four turns and the same current is passed through it. The magnetic field at its centre now is
