A current-carrying circular loop of wire (radius r, current I) is partially immersed in a magnetic field of constant magnitude B0 directed out of the page as shown. Determine the net force on the loop due to the field in terms of theta 0 (Note that theta 0 points to the dashed line, above which B=0).
