A wire carrying current \(I\) is tied between points \({P}\) and \({Q}\) and is in the shape of a circular arch of radius \({R}\) due to a uniform magnetic field \({B}\) (perpendicular to the plane of the paper, shown by cross marked) in the vicinity of the wire. If the wire subtends an angle \(\mathrm{2\theta_0}\) at the centre of the circle (of which it forms an arch) then the tension in the wire is:
 
1. \({IBR\over 2\sin\theta_0}\)
2. \({IBR\theta_0\over \sin\theta_0}\)
3. \({IBR}\)
4. \({IBR\over \sin\theta_0}\)

A rectangular coil (Dimension \(5~\text{cm}\times 2.5~\text{cm}\)) with \(100\) turns, carrying a current of \(3~\text{A}\) in the clock-wise direction, is kept centered at the origin and in the \(\mathrm{X\text-Z}\) plane. A magnetic field of \(1~\text{T}\) is applied along \(\mathrm{X\text{-}}\)axis. If the coil is tilted through \(45^\circ\) about \(\mathrm{Z\text{-}}\)axis, then the torque on the coil is:
1. \(0.55~\text{Nm}\)
2. \(0.38~\text{Nm}\)
3. \(0.42~\text{Nm}\)
4. \(0.27~\text{Nm}\)

A moving coil galvanometer has a coil with \(175\) turns and area \(1~\text{cm}^2\). It uses a torsion band of torsion constant \(10^{-6}\) N-m/rad. The coil is placed in a magnetic field \(B\) parallel to its plane. The coil deflects by \(1^\circ\) for a current of \(1~\text{mA}\). The value of \(B\) (in Tesla) is approximately:
1. \( 10^{-3} \)
2. \(10^{-1} \)
3. \(10^{-4} \)
4. \(10^{-2} \)

A square loop of side \(2a\), and carrying current \(I\), is kept in \(XZ\) plane with its centre at origin. A long wire carrying the same current \(I\) is placed parallel to the \(z\text-\)axis and passing through the point (\(0,b,0\)), (\(b >>a\)).
