A thin stiff insulated metal wire is bent into a circular loop with its two ends extending tangentially from the same point of the loop. The wire loop has mass and radius and it is in a uniform vertical magnetic field , as shown in the figure. Initially, it hangs vertically downwards, because of acceleration due to gravity , on two conducting supports at P and Q. When a current is passed through the loop, the loop turns about the line PQ by an angle given by
