The 10-turn loop of wire shown in the figure lies in a horizontal plane, parallel to a uniform horizontal magnetic field, and carries a 2.0 {rm A} current. The loop is free to rotate about a nonmagnetic axle through the center. A 50 {rm g} mass hangs from one edge of the loop.
What magnetic field strength will prevent the loop from rotating about the axle?
What magnetic field strength will prevent the loop from rotating about the axle?
