The figure shows a circular loop of radius $a$ with two long parallel wires (numbered $1$ and $2$) all in the plane of the paper. The distance of each wire from the centre of the loop is $d$. The loop and the wires are carrying the same current $I$. The current in the loop is in the counterclockwise direction if seen from above.
