The video tutorial explains the interaction between a large horizontal coil and a smaller coil placed at its center. It covers the calculation of the magnetic moment of the smaller coil and the magnetic induction produced by the larger coil. The tutorial then demonstrates how to find the torque experienced by the smaller coil due to its placement in the magnetic field of the larger coil, using the right-hand thumb rule and vector cross product. The final result is the expression for the net torque on the smaller coil.
