A rectangular coil of length 0.12 m and width 0.1 m having turns of wire is suspended vertically in a uniform magnetic field of strength 0.2 Wb/m2.The coil carries a current of 2 A. If the plane of the coil is inclined at an angle of 30o with the direction of the field, the torque required to keep the coil in stable equilibrium will be

  • 0.15 Nm

  • 0.20 Nm

  • 0.24 Nm

  • 0.24 Nm


B.

0.20 Nm

Given N = 50

B = 0.2 Wb/m2, I = 2A

θ = 60o, A = 0.12 x 0.1 = 0.012 m2


Thus, torque required to keep the coil in stable equilibrium i.e.,

 = NIAB sin θ = 50 x 2 x 0.012 x0.2 sin 60o
