Which of the following statements is correct in the given figure.

Options

A. net force on the loop is zero
B. net torque on the loop is zero
C. loop will rotate clockwise about axis `OO'` when seen from `O`
D. loop will rotate anticlockwise about `OO'` when seen from `O`

Answer

A,C

Explanation

Magnitude force on wire `BC` would be perpendicular to the plane of the loop along the outward direction and on wire `DA` the magnetic force would be along the inward normal, so net force on the wire loop is zero and torque on the loop would be along the clockwise sence as seen from `O`.
