The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to calculate the torque (τ) acting on a rectangular coil suspended in a magnetic field. The torque can be calculated using the formula: \[ \tau = n \cdot B \cdot I \cdot A \cdot \sin(\alpha) \] where: - \( n \) = number of turns of the coil - \( B \) = magnetic field strength - \( I \) = current flowing through the coil - \( A \) = area of the coil - \( \alpha \) = angle between the normal to the coil and the magnetic field ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Length of the coil, \( L = 0.12 \, m \) - Width of the coil, \( W = 0.1 \, m \) - Number of turns, \( n = 50 \) - Magnetic field strength, \( B = 0.2 \, \text{Weber/m}^2 \) - Current, \( I = 2 \, A \) - Angle of inclination with the magnetic field, \( \theta = 30^\circ \) ### Step 2: Calculate the area of the coil The area \( A \) of the rectangular coil can be calculated using the formula: \[ A = L \cdot W \] Substituting the values: \[ A = 0.12 \, m \cdot 0.1 \, m = 0.012 \, m^2 \] ### Step 3: Determine the angle \( \alpha \) Since the plane of the coil is inclined at an angle \( \theta = 30^\circ \) with respect to the magnetic field, the angle \( \alpha \) between the normal to the coil and the magnetic field is: \[ \alpha = 90^\circ - \theta = 90^\circ - 30^\circ = 60^\circ \] ### Step 4: Substitute the values into the torque formula Now we can substitute all the known values into the torque formula: \[ \tau = n \cdot B \cdot I \cdot A \cdot \sin(\alpha) \] Substituting the values: \[ \tau = 50 \cdot 0.2 \cdot 2 \cdot 0.012 \cdot \sin(60^\circ) \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( \sin(60^\circ) \) The value of \( \sin(60^\circ) \) is: \[ \sin(60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \approx 0.866 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the torque Now substituting \( \sin(60^\circ) \): \[ \tau = 50 \cdot 0.2 \cdot 2 \cdot 0.012 \cdot 0.866 \] Calculating step-by-step: \[ \tau = 50 \cdot 0.2 = 10 \] \[ \tau = 10 \cdot 2 = 20 \] \[ \tau = 20 \cdot 0.012 = 0.24 \] \[ \tau = 0.24 \cdot 0.866 \approx 0.208 \, \text{Newton meter} \] ### Final Result The torque required to keep the coil in stable equilibrium is approximately: \[ \tau \approx 0.020 \, \text{Newton meter} \]

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the torque (τ) acting on a rectangular coil suspended in a magnetic field. The torque can be calculated using the formula: \[ \tau = n \cdot B \cdot I \cdot A \cdot \sin(\alpha) \] where: - \( n \) = number of turns of the coil ...
