Detailed Solution

In the position shown, AB is outside, and CD is inside the plane of the paper. The Ampere force on AB acts into the paper. The torque on the loop will be clockwise, as seen from above. The loop must rotate through an angle 

\[\left( {{{90}^o} + \theta } \right)\]

  before the plane of the loop becomes normal to the direction of B and the torque becomes zero.
