Analyzing +4 | -1

Assertion (A): Torque on the coil is always maximum, when coil is suspended in a radial magnetic field.

Reason (R): Torque depends upon the magnitude of the applied magnetic field.

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

(A) is false, (R) is true

Option D ((A) is false, (R) is true) is correct because the torque is maximum when the coil is aligned with the magnetic field (not always maximum in a radial field), and torque does indeed depend on the magnetic field strength.

Which of the following statements is not true A current loop in a magnetic field Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): When currents vary with time, Newton’s third law is valid only if momentum carried by the electromagnetic field is taken into account.
Statement (II): Ampere's circuital law does not depend on Biot-Savart’s law.
