A square current carrying loop is suspended in a uniform magnetic field acting in the plane of the loop. If the force on one arm of the loop is F⃗, the net force on the remaining three arms of the loop is

Question

[Solution from source] The net magnetic force on a closed current loop in a uniform field is zero. So the other three arms together must give −F⃗, cancelling the force on the first arm. Answer (3).
