Two long parallel wires separated by a distance d each carry a constant electric current I. Find an expression for the magnitude of the force per unit length of wire (F/L) on each wire from the magnetic field of the other wire. Also find the direction of the force on each wire if the two currents are either parallel or anti parallel.

Two long, parallel wires separated by 50 cm carry currents of 4.0 A each in a horizontal direction. Find the magnitude of the net magnetic field 0.15 m away from each wire on the side opposite the other wire.

Two long parallel wires are separated by a distance of 2.50 cm. The force per unit length that each wire exerts on the other is N/m, and the wires repel each other. The current in one wire is 0.600 A.

(a) What is the current in the second wire?

(b) Are the two currents in the same directions?
