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.

A circular coil of radius \(r\) carries a current \(i\) and is placed in a uniform magnetic field \(B,\) with its plane parallel to the field. The magnitude of the torque acting on the coil is:
1. zero 2. \(2\pi r i B\)
3. \(\pi r^2i B\) 4. \(2\pi r^2i B\)

A current-carrying loop has a magnetic moment \(\vec{M}\) and carries a current \(I.\) The loop is placed in a uniform magnetic field \(\vec{B}.\) What is the magnitude of torque acting on the loop if the plane of the loop makes an angle of \(60^\circ\) with the direction of the magnetic field?
1. \(MB~ \text{cos} 60^\circ\)
2. \(MB~ \text{sin} 60^\circ\)
3. \(MB~ \text{tan} 60^\circ\)
4. \(MB~ \text{cot} 60^\circ\)

An electric current runs counterclockwise in a rectangular loop around the outside edge of the page, which lies flat on your table. A uniform magnetic field is then turned on, and directed parallel to the page from the top to the bottom. The magnetic force on the page will cause:

1. the left edge to lift up
2. the right edge to lift up
3. the top edge to lift up
4. the bottom edge to lift up
