Two infinitely long, straight wires are parallel and separated by a distance of one meter. They carry currents in the same direction. Wire 1 carries 5 times the current as wire 2 does. Determine the perpendicular distance from wire 1 to a point where the net magnetic field is zero between the two wires.

Two parallel wires are separated by a distance of 0.05 m. Wire 1 (located at the left) carries a current of 12.0 A. Wire 2 (located at the right) carries a current of 6.0 A flowing in the opposite direction. 2.1. Find the (a) magnitude and direction of the magnetic field created by wire 1 at wire 2, (b) force exerted by wire 1 on the 2.0 m long section of wire 2, and (c) force exerted by wire 2 on wire 1 if current 1 is going up and current 2 is going down. 2.2. Find the (a) magnitude and direction of the magnetic field created by wire 1 at wire 2, (b) force exerted by wire 1 on the 2.0 m long section of wire 2, and (c) force exerted by wire 2 on wire 1 if both currents are going up.

The two parallel wires on the right carry currents in opposite directions (i and -i). The wire on top is called wire 1 and carries current I1 = 4.00 i A, and the wire below is called wire 2 and carries current I2 = 6.00 -i A. The two wires are separated by a distance of 2.50 mm and are both the same length, 50.0 cm. Wire 1 is above wire 2 as shown. Format answers as 3.66e-3, not 3.66 x 10^-3. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at wire 2 due to wire 1. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on wire 2 due to wire 1. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at wire 1 due to wire 2. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on wire 1 due to wire 2. Thus, we see the two wires each other with forces
