A uniform, 458-g metal bar 75.0 cm long carries a current I in a uniform, horizontal 1.25-T magnetic field as shown in below Fig.. The directions of I and  are shown in the figure. The bar is free to rotate about a frictionless hinge at point b. The other end of the bar rests on a conducting support at point a but is not attached there. The bar rests at an angle of 60.0° above the horizontal. What is the largest value the current I can have without breaking the electrical contact at a? (See Problem.)

PROBLEM:

The rectangular loop of wire shown in below Fig. has a mass of 0.15 g per centimeter of length and is pivoted about side ab on a frictionless axis. The current in the wire is 8.2. A in the direction shown. Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field parallel to the y-axis that will cause the loop to swing up until its plane makes an angle of 30.0° with the yz-plane.
