A square loop, carrying a steady current \(I,\) is placed in a horizontal plane near a long straight conductor carrying a steady current \(I_1\) at a distance \(d\) from the conductor as shown in the figure. The loop will experience:

   

1. a net attractive force toward the conductor
2. a net repulsive force away from the conductor
3. a net torque acting upward perpendicular to the horizontal plane
4. a net torque acting downward normal to the horizontal plane

Two radioactive nuclei P and Q, in a given sample decay into a stable nucleus R. At time t = 0, number of P species are 4 N0 and that of Q are N0. The half-life of P (for conversion to R) is 1 minute whereas that of Q is 2 minutes. Initially, there are no nuclei of R present in the sample. When the number of nuclei of P and Q are equal, the number of nuclei of R present in the sample would be:
1. 2N0
2. 3N0
3. 9N02
4. 5N02
