An infinitely long, straight wire carrying current `I_(1)` passes through the center of circular loop of wire carrying current `I_(2)`. The infinite wire is perpendicular to the plane ofthe loop. Which of the following statements is/are INCORRECT regarding the magnetic force on the loop due to the infinite wire:

A

Force on the loop due to infinite wire is upward, along the axis of the loop

B

Force on the loop due to infinite wire is downward, along the axis of the loop

C

Although net force on the loop due to infinite wire is zero, but due to magnetic interaction between infinite wire and loop, a tensile stress is developed in the loop

D

There is no magnetic force on the loop due to infinite wire.
