Two long straight wires carrying currents \(i_1, i_2\) are placed as shown in the figure, just avoiding contact. The separation between the wires is negligible, and the wires are aligned along \(x\) & \(y\) axes respectively. 
 
The wire along the \(x\text-\)axis experiences:
1. a force along \(+y\) axis only.
2. a force along \(-y\) axis.
3. zero force, but a torque.
4. no force and no torque.

Which of the following statements about a moving coil galvanometer is incorrect?

1. The spring in a galvanometer provides a counter torque that balances the magnetic torque.
2. A galvanometer has multiple turns of wire to enhance the torque acting on the coil.
3. In all positions, the magnetic field \(B\) remains parallel to the plane of the coil.
4. The deflection \(\phi\) indicated by the scale is proportional to the square of the current flowing through the coil.

Two small current-carrying loops carrying currents in the clockwise direction are placed in the same plane, separated by a distance \(d\) (which is much larger than the size of the loops). The two loops:
1. attract each other.
2. repel each other. 
3. exert no force on each other, but exert a torque.
4. neither exert any force nor any torque on each other.
