Question: A rectangular loop of wire carries a ( I = 1 . 8 mathrm { ~A } ) current and lies in

A rectangular loop of wire carries a \( I=1.8\mathrm{~A}\) current and lies in a plane which also contains a very long straight wire carrying a 10.0-A current as shown in the figure.(Figure 1)
Determine the magnitude of the net force on the loop due to the straight wire.
Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
\[
F_{\text {net }}=
\]
Part B
Determine the direction of the net force on the loop due to the straight wire.

Part C
Determine the net torque on the loop due to the straight wire.
\[
\tau=
\]
\[
\mathrm{N}\cdot \mathrm{~m}
