$A$ rectangular coil $20\,cm \times 20\,cm$ has $100$ turns and carries a current of $1\,A$. It is placed in a uniform magnetic field $B = 0.5\,T$ with the direction of the magnetic field parallel to the plane of the coil. The magnitude of the torque required to hold this coil in this position is ........ $N-m$.

Suppose we want to verify the analogy between electrostatic and magnetostatic by an explicit experiment. Consider the motion of
$(i)$ electric dipole $\vec{p}$ in an electrostatic field $\vec{E}$ and
$(ii)$ magnetic dipole $\vec{M}$ in a magnetic field $\vec{B}$. Write down a set of conditions on $\vec{E}, \vec{B}, \vec{p}, \vec{M}$ so that the two motions are verified to be identical. (Assume identical initial conditions.)
