In the figure,the rectangular loop is pivoted about one side (of length 0.060 m),that coincides with the y-axis.The end (length 0.020 m)of the loop that lies in the xz-plane makes an angle of 37° with the x-axis as shown.The loop carries a current of I = 69 A in the direction shown.(In the side of the loop that is along the y-axis the current is in the +y direction.)If there is a uniform B\vec { B } field of magnitude 9.7 T in the -x direction,find the magnitude of the torque that this magnetic field exerts on the loop.
