Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

In uniform magnetic fields, the net force depends on the symmetry of the current distribution, while torque depends on the dipole moment about the center of mass (CM).

P has torque only (2).

Q is fully symmetric no force, no torque (3).

R has unequal fields force and torque (1,4).

S has force only (4).

Correct option: A.
