Question

give explanation with answer for this question​

Answer 1

Correct option is C

• move toward the wire

The long straight wire and side AB  carry current in the same direction, hence will attract each other.

The long straight wire and side CD carry current in the opposite direction, hence will repel each other.

Force on side BC  will be equal and opposite to force on side DA.

Since CD  is farther from the wire than AB,  the force of attraction on  AB  will exceed the force of repulsion on CD.

Hence, there will be a net force of attraction on the loop ABCD and it will move towards the wire.
