In the Figure, the Rectangular Loop Is Pivoted About One

question 84

Short Answer

In the figure, the rectangular loop is pivoted about one side (of length 0.060 m), that coincides with the y-axis. The end (length 0.020 m)of the loop that lies in the xz-plane makes an angle of 37° with the x-axis as shown. The loop carries a current of I = 69 A in the direction shown. (In the side of the loop that is along the y-axis the current is in the +y direction.)If there is a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 9.7 T in the -x direction, find the magnitude of the torque that this magnetic field exerts on the loop.
