There is a current I flowing in a clockwise direction in a square loop of wire that is in the plane of the paper. If the magnetic field is toward the right, and if each side of the loop has length L, the net magnetic torque acting on the loop is:

IBL²

Explanation:

Given that

Current flowing in the wire, is I

Magnetic field towards the right, is B

Length of each side of the loop, is L

Number of windings on the loop, is N

Torque exerted on the wire, is T

The torque, T is usually given by the formula

Torque, T = NBIAsinθ,

and if N = 1 and sinθ = 1 also, then we have

Torque, T = BIA

And we know that Area A from this particular question will be given as = L². If we then substitute A for L², we then have

Torque, T = IBL²

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.
