A conductor (shown in the figure) carrying constant current $I$ is kept in the $x-y$ plane in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}$. If $F$ is the magnitude of the total magnetic force acting on the conductor, then the correct statement$(s)$ is(are) $Image$

$(A)$ If $\vec{B}$ is along $\hat{z}, F \propto(L+R)$

$(B)$ If $\overrightarrow{ B }$ is along $\hat{ x }, F =0$

$(C)$ If $\vec{B}$ is along $\hat{y}, F \propto(L+R)$

$(D)$ If $\overrightarrow{ B }$ is along $\hat{ z }, F =0$
