Questions  

A current carrying square loop ABCD is placed at a distance a from on infinitely long current carrying long straight conductor PQ as shown in the figure. The conductor PQ lies in the plane of the loop. Then

a
magnetic potential energy stored in the system is zero.
b
the square loop experiences a net torque.
c
the loop experiences a net force towards the conductor PQ.
d
the loop experiences a net force away from PQ.

detailed solution

Correct option is C

F→DA=F→BCF→AB=i AB→×B→1FAB=i×a×μoI2πaF→CD=i CD→×B→2=i×a×μoI2π2a∴FAb>FCD
