$A$ long straight wire is carrying current $I_1$ in the $+z$ direction. The $x-y$ plane contains a closed circular loop carrying current $I_2$ and does not encircle the straight wire. The net force on the loop will be:

  • A
    ${\mu _0}{I_1}{I_2}/2\pi$
  • B
    ${\mu _0}{I_1}{I_2}/4\pi$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    Depends on the distance of the centre of the loop from the wire.
