Suppose an isolated north pole is kept at the centre of a circular loop carrying an electric current $i$. The magnetic field due to the north pole at a point on the periphery of the wire is $B$. The radius of the loop is $a$. The force on the wire is

  • A
    Nearly $2 \pi a i B$ perpendicular to the plane of the wire
  • B
    $2 \pi a i B$ in the plane of the wire
  • C
    $\pi a i B$ along the axis of the wire
  • D
    $0$
