**Torque on current loop** in magnetic field B is τ = N I A × B, magnitude τ = N I A B sinθ, N turns, I current (A), A area (m²) = l×b for rectangular, θ angle between normal to plane and B. Maximum when plane parallel to B (θ=90°), zero when perpendicular (θ=0°), magnetic moment m = N I A direction along normal via right-hand rule. Torque tau = N I A B sin θ , where A = 0.15 × 0.15 = 0.0225 m² . tau = 50 × 1 × 0.0225 × 0.6 × sin 30° = 0.675 × 0.5 =
