Q1. A coil of wire is placed in a magnetic field and is observed to experience a torque. What is the reason for this torque?
Answer: The coil is experiencing a magnetic force
Explanation: The torque experienced by the coil is due to the magnetic force acting on the current-carrying wire. This is a result of the interaction between the magnetic field and the current flowing through the coil.
