So this was a section taken out from a question which I am trying to do shown below
I have drawn a sketch to help me visualise of what is going on
I have used Fleming's left hand rule to help me determine what direction the force is facing on each side of the coil.
For the last part in c)ii , this is what I would say as the coil rotates:
As the coil rotates from a sideway to a vertical orientation, less magnetic field lines pass through the coil thus torque value decreases to zero. Maximum torque only occurs when the magnetic field is perpendicular to the normal line of the coil. Where as it is a minimum (zero) torque when the magnetic field is parallel to the normal line of the coil
Would that be sufficient to what the question asks for?
Any help would be really grateful! Thanks
