उत्तर
The torque (τ) of a needle in uniform magnetic field will be given as
`vectau = vecM xx vecB =MB sintheta`
Here
M = magnetic moment = 4.8 ×10−2 J/T
B = magnetic field strength = 3 × 10−2 T
θ = angle with respect to field = 30°
So, the torque will be rewritten as
`vectau`= (4.8 ×10−2) × (3 × 10−2) sin 30°
`or vectau = 14.4 xx 10^-4 xx 1/2 = 7.2 xx 10^-4 N`

- Assertion (A): The deflecting torque acting on a current-carrying loop is zero when its plane is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field.
- Reason (R): The deflecting torque acting on a loop of the magnetic moment `vecm` in a magnetic field `vecB` is given by the dot product of `vecm` and `vecB`.
