A rectangular current loop (dimensions 0.10 m×0.20 m0.10\,\text{m}\times0.20\,\text{m}) carries current I=2.0 AI=2.0\,\text{A}, meaning charges move around the loop and create a magnetic dipole moment μ⃗=IA n^\vec\mu=IA\,\hat n. The loop is in a uniform magnetic field B⃗=0.30 T\vec B=0.30\,\text{T} to the right. The torque on the loop is τ⃗=μ⃗×B⃗\vec\tau=\vec\mu\times\vec B; equilibrium occurs when μ⃗\vec\mu is parallel or antiparallel to B⃗\vec B. Refer to the scenario above. Determine the net force on the loop in the uniform magnetic field.
