Chapter 19 Problem 19.24

Question

A rectangular loop consists of 100 closely wrapped turns and has dimensions 0.40 m by 0.30 m. The loop is hinged along the y-axis, and the plane of the coil makes an angle of 30.0 with the x-axis (Fig. P19.24). What is the magnitude of the torque exerted on the loop by a uniform magnetic eld of 0.80 T directed along the x-axis when the current in the windings has a value of 1.2 A in the direction shown? What is the expected direction of rotation of the loop?

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 19 problem number 24 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A rectangular loop consists of 100 closely wrapped turns and has dimensions 0.40 m by 0.30 m. The loop is hinged along the y-axis, and the plane of the coil makes an angle of 30.0 with the x-axis (Fig. P19.24). What is the magnitude of the torque exerted on the loop by a uniform magnetic eld of 0.80 T directed along the x-axis when the current in the windings has a value of 1.2 A in the direction shown? What is the expected direction of rotation of the loop?
From the textbook chapter Magnetism you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
