In this paper we propose a new relationship between the opposing mechanical torque and the electric conductivity of a rotating liquid specimen in a permanent external magnetic field of constant induction. It is shown that the proposed relationship describes the experimental data for a rotating specimen better than Braunbeck formula derived under the assumption that a magnetic field rotates around a stationary metal sample.
