An infinite current carrying wire passes...

An infinite current carrying wire passes through point O and is perpendicular to the plane containing a current carrying loop ABCD as shown in figure. Choose the correct option(s).

A

Net force on the loop is zero

B

Net torque on the loop is zero

C

As seen from `O` the loop rotates clockwise

D

As seen from `O` the loop rotates anticlockwise

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`A,C`

Field due to loop will be || to current is conductor so force by loop on conductor is zero In turns force of conductor on loop is also zero
Force on `AB =0, CD =0, F_(BC) hatk, F_(DA) (-hatk)` Net force will be zero as seen from `O` loop will rotate clockwise
