Current carrying loop
Caused by motor effect
- Since both forces are perpendicular to pivot point rotation occurs
- Direction of mag field from left to right
- Direction of mag field from left to right
- Current in coil abcd is clockwise
- Force on side ab is downwards and on side cd it is upwards
- Therfore there is anticlockwise torque
- Torque maximum at parrallel position and zero at perpindicular position
- This means that it will travel in clockwise direction and move back and forth
- Torque maximum at parrallel position and zero at perpindicular position
- Therfore there is anticlockwise torque
- Force on side ab is downwards and on side cd it is upwards
