#"0 N"#

Explanation:

Since the current is parallel to the magnetic field, there is no force acting on the wire.

#color(white)(aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa)color(blue)[vecF = veciLxxvecBsin(theta)#

Where
#"i = current (A)"#
#"L = length of the wire (m)"#
#"B = magnetic field (T)"#
#sin(theta) = "angle between current and magnetic field"#

Since the angle between the current and the magnetic field is #0^@#(parallel), then there is no force acting on the wire since the #sin(0^@) = 0#.
