Question
Consider a rectangular loop of wire placed in the same plane as a straight wire, as shown in the diagram below. A current of 2.00A runs through the rectangular loop. The dimensions of the loop are 1m x 0.5m. A current of 8.00A runs through the wire.
Does the loop experience a net force? If so, determine the magnitude and direction of the net force on the loop. If not, expain why not. Show your work and explain your reasoning.

here,
magnetic force between two wire is given as
F = u0*I1*I2*l/(2*pi*d)
l is the length of wire for with the force needes to be calaculated
Here ,
the net Force on the loop is
Fnet = Fright - Fleft
Fnet = 4*pi*10^-7*8 * 1 * 2 (1/.05 - 1/.10) *(1/(2*pi))
Fnet = 3.2 *10^-5 N
the net force on the loop is 3.2 *10^-5 N to the right
