A small coil C with N = 200 turns is mounted on one end of a balance beam and introduced between the poles of an electromagnet as shown in figure. The cross sectional area of coil is A= 1.0 cm$^2$, length of arm OA of the balance beam is l = 30 cm. When there is no current in the coil the balance is in equilibrium. On passing a current I = 22 mA through the coil the equilibrium is restored by putting the additional counter weight of mass ∆m = 60 mg on the balance pan. Find the magnetic induction at the spot where coil is located.
