Please explain and show all work.
A single-turn wire loop 10 cm in diameter carries a 16 A current. It experiences a torque of 1.8×10-2 Nm when the normal to the loop plane makes a 37 angle with a uniform magnetic field.
Q: What is the magnetic field strength?
(Express your answer using two significant figures.)
Solution
i = current in the loop = 16 A
d = diameter = 10 cm = 0.10 m
A = area = d2/4 = 3.14 (0.1)2/4 = 7.85 x 10-3 m2
= Torque = 0.018
= angle = 37
Torque is given as
= NiAB Sin
0.018 = 1 (16) (7.85 x 10-3) B Sin37
B = 0.23885 T
