A current of 4.0 A is maintained in a circular loop with radius 24.7 cm that consists of 50 turns of wire. An external magnetic field of 2.0 T is directed so that the angle between the field and the plane of the loop is 20°. Determine the magnitude of the torque exerted on the loop by the magnetic forces acting upon it.
