A proton has a magnetic field due to its spin on its axis. the field is similar to that created by a circular current loop 0.650
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

\tau=3.48*10^{-26}Nm  

Explanation:

The torque equation is given by:

\tau=IABsin(\theta)

Where:

  • I is the current
  • A is the area of the loop (A=πR²)
  • θ is the angle between the normal vector of A and B, in this case it is 90 degrees

So:

\tau=1.05*10^{4}*\pi *(0.65*10^{-15})^{2}*2.5  

Therefore the torque is:

\tau=3.48*10^{-26}Nm    

I hope it helps you!
