A rectangular current loop is placed in the six orientations shown in the same uniform magnetic field. Which general statements correctly apply to these cases?

Select all that apply

• Option A

  The net magnetic force on the closed loop is zero in every case.

• Option B

  The torque is τ⃗=μ⃗×B⃗, with |τ|=IAB sinθ.

• Option C

  The stable equilibrium orientation has μ⃗ parallel to B⃗.

• Option D

  The antiparallel orientation μ⃗ opposite B⃗ is unstable.
