A current loop of sides 10 cm and 5 cm carrying a current I of 12 A is placed in different orientations in magnetic field B as shown in the figures below:
If there is a uniform magnetic field of 0.3 T in the positive z direction, in which orientations the loop would be in
(i) stable equilibrium and
(ii) unstable equilibrium?
(b) and (d), respectively
Stable equilibrium →M||→B
Unstable equilibrium →M||(−→B)
