Detailed Solution

Consider a coil PQRS placed in a magnetic field. Let 0 be the angle between the plane of the coil and direction of B.
When current flow through coil each side experiences a force. The forces on vertical side will constitute a couple.
Moment of torque = One of forces × Perpendicular distance between lines of action of force
τ=F×QT=F×bsinθ=IlBbsinθτ=I(lb)Bsinθτ=I(A×B) ( Area =lb)
If there are N turns, then τ=NI(A×B)=M×B
Where, M=NIA is magnetic moment of loop.
A magnetic field, in which the plane of the coil in all positions remains parallel to the
direction of magnetic field is called radial magnetic field.
In a radial magnetic field, magnetic torque remains maximum for all the positions of the coil.
