2. Consider two current loops, each of radius R carrying a current I. The centers are a distance d apart, with d » R. Take the first loop (1) to lie in the x-y plane with its center at the origin. The second loop (2) is centered at position = dŷ and lies in a plane parallel to the x-z plane. The direction of the currents are clockwise about the+z direction for loop (1) and counter-clockwise about the +y direction for loop (2). Determine the torque and the force of each of the current loops on the other. You should find that in one case Newton's 3rd Law is violated!
