$A$ square coil $ABCD$ of side $L$ is carrying a current $I_1$ in the clockwise direction. $A$ straight conductor carrying current $I_2$ (upward direction) is kept parallel to side $AB$ at a distance $\frac{L}{3}$ in the plane of $ABCD$. The net force on the coil $ABCD$ is ($\mu_0 =$ magnetic permeability).

$A$ current of $10 \ A$ flows through two long parallel wires. The magnetic force per unit length on each wire is $2 \times 10^{-3} \ N/m$.
