Answer:

636.619772368 A

Explanation:

\tau = Torque = 1\times 10^{-3}\ N/m

B = Magnetic field of Earth = 5\times 10^{-5}\ T

A = Area

d = Diameter = 20 cm

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\tau}{BA}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1\times 10^{-3}}{5\times 10^{-5}\times \dfrac{\pi}{4}\times 0.2^2}\\\Rightarrow I=636.619772368\ A

The current is 636.619772368 A
