Four wires,each of length $2.0\,m$,are bent into four loops $P, Q, R$ and $S$ and then suspended in a uniform magnetic field. If the same current is passed in each,then the torque will be maximum on the loop:

$A$ circular coil carrying a current of $2.5 \ A$ is free to rotate about an axis in its plane perpendicular to an external magnetic field. When the coil is made to oscillate, the time period of oscillation is $T$. If the current through the coil is $10 \ A$, the time period of oscillation is:

$A$ closely wound solenoid of $800$ turns and area of cross section $2.5 \times 10^{-4} \;m^{2}$ carries a current of $3.0 \;A$. If the solenoid is free to turn about the vertical direction and a uniform horizontal magnetic field of $0.25 \;T$ is applied,what is the magnitude of torque on the solenoid when its axis makes an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with the direction of the applied field?

The expression for the torque acting on a coil having area of cross-section $A$,number of turns $n$,placed in a magnetic field of strength $B$,making an angle $\theta$ with the normal to the plane of the coil,when a current $i$ is flowing in it,will be

$A$ circular coil has a moment of inertia of $0.8 \, kg \cdot m^2$ around any diameter and is carrying a current to produce a magnetic moment of $20 \, A \cdot m^2$. The coil is kept initially in a vertical position and it can rotate freely around a horizontal diameter. When a uniform magnetic field of $4 \, T$ is applied along the vertical,it starts rotating around its horizontal diameter. The angular speed the coil acquires after rotating by $60^{\circ}$ will be:
