Question

Statement 1: The net force on a closed circular current carrying loop placed in a uniform magnetic field is zero. Statement 2: The torque produced in a conducting circular ring is zero when it is placed in a uniform magnetic field such that the magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of loop.

Answer 1

Explanation:

The net force on the loop will be zero. The line of action for two forces acting on dl have the same line of action. Hence, net torque acting on the loop is also zero.
