A conducting circular loop of radius r carries a constant current i. It is placed in a uniform magnetic field B such that B is perpendicular to the plane of loop. What is the magnetic force acting on the loop?

A

IRB

B

`2piIRB`

C

zero

D

`piIRB`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
