A rectangular loop carrying a current $\mathrm{i}$ is placed in a uniform magnetic field B. The area enclosed by the loop is A. If there are $n$ turns in the loop, the torque acting on the loop is given by
- Correct answerA$\operatorname{ni} \mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B}$
- Bni $\mathbf{A} \cdot \mathbf{B}$
- C$\frac{1}{n}(i \mathbf{A} \times \mathbf{B})$
- D$\frac{\mathrm{l}}{\mathrm{n}}(\mathrm{iA} \cdot \mathbf{B})$
Solution
Torque, $\mathrm{T}=\mathrm{ni}(\mathrm{A} \times \mathrm{B})$
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
