A circular coil of 25 turns and radius 6 cm, carrying a current of 10 A, is suspended vertically in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.2 T. The field lines run horizontally in the plane of the coil. Calculate the force and torque on the coil due to the magnetic field. In which direction, should a balancing torque be applied to prevent the coil from turning?

Hi,
 
Consider loop in XY-plane and,

Hope, this answer helps you.
Best wishes!!
