$A$ current-carrying rectangular loop $PQRS$ is made of uniform wire. The lengths are $PR = QS = 5\,cm$ and $PQ = RS = 100\,cm$. If the ammeter current reading changes from $I$ to $2I$,the ratio of magnetic forces per unit length on the wire $PQ$ due to wire $RS$ in the two cases respectively,$f_{PQ}^{I} : f_{PQ}^{2I}$,is:

  • A
    $1: 2$
  • B
    $1: 4$
  • C
    $1: 5$
  • D
    $1: 3$
