The magnetic field existing in a region is given by $\vec{B} = B_0 \left(1 + \frac{x}{l}\right) \hat{k}$. $A$ square loop of edge length $l$ and carrying a current $i$ is placed with its edges parallel to the $x$ and $y$ axes. Find the magnitude of the net magnetic force experienced by the loop.

Two long conductors separated by a distance $d$ carry currents $I_1$ and $I_2$ in the same direction. They exert a force $F$ on each other. Now,the current in one of them is increased to $2$ times and its direction is reversed. The distance between them is also increased to $3d$. The new value of force between them is:

Two parallel wires are carrying electric currents of equal magnitude and in the same direction. They exert

Three long straight wires are connected in parallel to each other across a battery of negligible internal resistance. The ratio of their resistances is $3 : 4 : 5$. What is the ratio of the distances of the middle wire from the others if the net force experienced by it is zero?
