 Force on arm AB due to current in conductor XY is acting towards XY in the plane of loop and is equal to,

F1=μ04π2IiL(L/2)=μ0Iiπ 

Force on arm CD due to current in conductor XY is acting away from XY in the plane of loop and is equal to,

F2=μ04π2IiL3(L/2)=μ0Ii3π

Net force on the loop is, 

Fnet=F1-F2

Fnet=μ0Iiπ1-13=23μ0Iiπ
