The torque acting on a current carrying loop placed in a uniform magnetic field is,
τ=IABsinθ
where, I=current flow in loop
A=Direction of the area vector
B= uniform magnetic field
The torque acting on a current-carrying loop placed in a uniform magnetic field depends upon
1) area of the loop
2) value of current
3) magnetic field
So option D is correct
