A rectangular loop of sides and carrying a current of is placed in different orientations as shown in the figures below:


If there is a uniform magnetic field of in the positive z direction, in which orientations the loop would be in stable equilibrium and unstable equilibrium?






Important Questions on Magnetism

A circular loop of radius and mass is placed in plane as shown in the figure below. A uniform magnetic field is applied parallel to -axis. What should be the value of current flowing in the loop such that one edge of the loop just gets lifted from the table?

Four wires each of length are bent into four loops , , and and then suspended into uniform magnetic field. Same current is passed in each loop. Then the couple will be the highest on loop
