Two thin long parallel wires A and B are separated by a distance r and carry current I each in the same direction. The force per unit length exerted by A on wire B is:

  1. \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{I}}{2 \mathrm{r}}\) , attractive
  2. \(\frac{\mu_0 I^2}{2 \pi r}\) , repulsive
  3. \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{I}}{2 \pi \mathrm{r}}\) , repulsive
  4. \(\frac{\mu_0 \mathrm{I}^2}{2 \pi \mathrm{r}}\) , attractive

Answer

(D) _0 I ^2 2 r , attractive
