Homework Statement
Take a wire, and form it into a rectangular loop. It carries a current I.
What should its dimensions be, and how should it be placed inside of a magnetic field to maximize the torque on it?
Homework Equations
tau = NIAB sin theta
The Attempt at a Solution
There's no answer to this in my book, but shouldn't the dimensions just be L/4 by L/4 (a square), and it's perpendicular to the field?
