Hello Mr. Adrian Popa. I want to thank you for your patience to help me with 
that question. You have been very helpful so far and I hope you have the time 
to review this text.There is no problem with theta angle.I need to clear out 
that my question is for the total component of the lorentz force that lies on 
the vertical axis, thus is ON the ring’s plane and not perpendicular to it, 
which is of course zero by symmetry as you agreed. Since lorentz force is 
attractive for one side and repelling for the other one, there is always a 
component of it that lies on the vertical axis and is always on the same 
direction. So is can’t be zero. Similarly I think that only the horizontal 
component of Bwire contributes to the vertical force.
My calculation results on the following:
F(vertical)=[mu*RingCurrent*WireCurrent/(2*pi)]*integral{(sin(th))^2/[(sin(th))
^2+1/4]} or F=mu*RC*WC*0.553
I’ll be waiting for your comments. Thank you!
