Question

Through two parallel wires $$A$$ and $$B,$$ $$10A$$  and $$2A$$  of currents are passed respectively in opposite directions. If the wire $$A$$ is infinitely long and the length of the wire $$B$$ is $$2m,$$ then force on the conductor $$B,$$ which is situated at $$10\,cm$$  distance from $$A,$$ will be

A. $$8 \times {10^{ - 7}}N$$
B. $$8 \times {10^{ - 5}}N$$  
C. $$4 \times {10^{ - 7}}N$$
D. $$4 \times {10^{ - 5}}N$$
Answer :   $$8 \times {10^{ - 5}}N$$
Solution :
$$\eqalign{ & F = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}\frac{{2{I_1}{I_2}}}{r} \times \ell \cr & = \frac{{{{10}^{ - 7}} \times 2 \times 10 \times 2}}{{0.1}} \times 2 \cr & = 8 \times {10^{ - 5}}N \cr} $$
