In the figure, a rectangular loop carrying current lies in the plane of a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.0502 T. The loop consists of a single turn of flexible conducting wire that is wrapped around a flexible mount such that the dimensions of the rectangle can be changed. (The total length of the wire is not changed.) As edge length x is varied from approximately zero to its maximum value of approximately 4.21 cm, the magnitude T of the torque on the loop changes. The maximum value of T is 3.44 x 108 N*m. What is the current in the loop? Units
