Answer

$60^{\circ}$

Work Step by Step

We can find the required angle as follows: $\tau=NABIsin\theta$ This can be rearranged as: $\theta=sin^{-1}(\frac{\tau}{NABI})$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\theta=sin^{-1}(\frac{0.205N.m}{(1)\pi(0.23m)^2(0.95T)(2.6A)})$ $\theta=sin^{-1}(0.4994)$ $\theta=30^{\circ}$ Now the angle the plane of the loop makes with field is $90^{\circ}-30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$
