Question
A square loop of each side as 'a' and a circular loop with the
diameter of length 'a' lie in the xy-plane, where there is a
uniform magnetic field B pointing at an angle with the positive
z-direction. Each loop carries the same current, in the same
sense (clockwise or counterclockwise). Which magnetic torque is
larger? By what ratio? (Take the torque T, for square, Tc for the
circle)
Te is greater than T, where Tc/ Ts = 4/π.
OT, is greater than Te where Ts/ Tc = 8/T.
OT, is greater than Te where T5 / Tc = 4/π.
OTS is greater than Te where Ts/ Tc = 2/3π.
