A conducting wire bent in the form of a parabola $\mathrm{y}^2=2 \mathrm{x}$ carries a current of $4 \mathrm{~A}$ as shown in figure. This wire is placed in a uniform magnetic field of induction $\bar{B}=+6 \hat{k} T$. The magnetic force on the wire is
  1. $96 \hat{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{N}$
  2. $-48 \hat{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{N}$
  3. $-96 \hat{k} \mathrm{N}$
  4. $-96 \hat{\mathrm{i}} \mathrm{N}$
