A circular coil of radius and turns has negligible resistance. As shown in the schematic figure, its two ends are connected to two wires and it is hanging by those wires with its plane being vertical. The wires are connected to a capacitor with charge through a switch. The coil is in a horizontal uniform magnetic field parallel to the plane of the coil. When the switch is closed, the capacitor gets discharged through the coil in a very short time. By the time the capacitor is discharged fully, magnitude of the angular momentum gained by the coil will be (assume that the discharge time is so short that the coil has hardly rotated during this time)

Solution
The correct option is B
Step 1 : Given data
Radius of the coil
Magnetic field
Step 2 : To find the Torque
When the switch is closed entire charge flows through the coil and produce a Torque
