The figure shows a conducting loop $ADCA$ carrying current $i$ and placed in a region of uniform magnetic field $B_0$. The part $ADC$ forms a semicircle of radius $R$. The magnitude of the force on the semicircular part of the loop is equal to

  • A
    $\pi R i B_0$
  • B
    $0$
  • C
    $2 \pi R i B_0$
