An isosceles triangular current-carrying loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow{B_{o}}$ directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop,as shown in the figure. The net magnetic force on the loop is:

  • A
    $ILB_{o} \cos \theta$
  • B
    $2ILB_{o} \cos \theta$
  • C
    $0$
  • D
    $ILB_{o} \sin \theta$
