A rectangular coil is made up of N = 100 very tight turns and has dimensions a = 0.400m and b = 0.300m. The coil is articulated along the y-axis, and its plane forms an angle of θ = 30 ° with the x-axis.                                                a) What is the magnitude of the torque exerted on the coil by a uniform magnetic field B = 0.800T directed along the x-axis, when the current is I = 1.20 A in the direction shown in the figure?                                                      b) What is the expected direction of rotation of the coil?
