Homework Statement
Note getting the right answer.
Question:
a). What is the magnitude of the torque on the circular current loop in the figure?
b). What is the loop's equilibrium position.
Homework Equations
Torque = [(I*A)*B*(sin(theta))]
L= 2.0cm
a= 2.0mm
Iwire = 2.0A
Iloop = 0.20A
The Attempt at a Solution
First, I tried to find theta using tan^-1(x/y).
Second, I tried to find B, using B= [(1.257E-6T*(m/A)*(I)] /(2*pi*r).
Finally, I tried Torque = [(I*A)*B*(sin(theta))].
