The 20.0 cm x 35.0 cm rectangular circuit shown in Fig. E27.45 is hinged along side ab.
Question:
(a) Draw a clear diagram showing the direction of the force that the magnetic field exerts on each segment of the circuit (ab, bc, etc.).
(b) Of the four forces you drew in part (a), decide which ones exert a torque about the hinge ab. Then calculate only those forces that exert this torque.
(c) Use your results from part (b) to calculate the torque that the magnetic field exerts on the circuit about the hinge axis ab.
