A rectangular loop of wire of size`4 cm xx 10 cm` carries a steady current of 2A. A straight long wire carrying 5A current is kept near the loop If the loop and the wire are coplanar, find
(i) the torque acting on the loop and
(ii) the magnitude and direction of the force on the loop due to the current carrying wire(fig).
