Detailed Solution

 Force on arm AB due to current in conductor XY is 

F1=μ04π2IiL(L/2)=μ0Iiπ

acting towards X Y in the plane of loop. Force on arm CD due to current in conductor X Y is

F2=μ04π2IiL3(L/2)=μ0Ii3π

acting away from X Y in the plane of loop.
therefore Net force on the loop =F1-F2

=μ0Iiπ1-13=23μ0Iiπ
