(a) +x-direction, zero torque about x-axis
(b) –x-direction, zero torque about x-axis
(c) No. The two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, canceling each other,
and can have no effect on the motion of the loop.

upward at 77.0° to the left of vertical
(a) in the –y-direction
(b) upward, in the positive z-direction
(c) The magnitude of the upward magnetic force must equal that of the downward gravitational
force.

(e) 5.40 cm
(a)
(b)
(c)
This is as expected since the two field contributions have equal magnitudes and
opposite directions at the point midway between the wires.
56.
(a) 8.0 A
(b) opposite directions
(c) Reversing the direction of one current changes the force from repulsion to attraction.
Doubling the magnitude of one current doubles the magnitude of the force.
