Two long straight wires carry the same amount of current in the directions indicated. The wires cross each other in the plane of the paper. Here, d = 2.70 cm and I = 7.50 A. What is the magnetic field at point D? If the direction of the force is into the page, enter a negative value.

Two long, straight wires are perpendicular to the plane of the paper and at a distance of 0.2 m from each other, as shown in the figure. The wires carry currents of I1 = 2.8 A and I2 = 5.2 A in the direction indicated (out of the page). Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field (in µT) at a point A midway between the wires.
