Two long, parallel, current-carrying wires lie in an xy-plane. The first wire lies on the line y = 0.400 m and carries a current of 25.0 A in the+x direction. The second wire lies along the x-axis. The wires exert attractive forces on each other, and the force per unit length on eachwire is 290 μN/m. What is the y-value (in m) of the line in the xy-plane where the total magnetic field is zero?.207Use the right-hand rule to determine the possible location of a point where the magnetic field is zero. Write an expression for the force ofattraction between the wires, find expressions for the magnetic fields due to each wire at the point, and set them equal. Use yourexpression for the force per unit length to eliminate one of the currents, and solve for the required distance. m

A wire is held horizontally in a vacuum chamber, and carries a current of 1.40 µA. A proton is traveling in a direction parallel to the wire (opposite the current) with a constant speed of 2.60 ✕ 104 m/s at a distance d above the wire. Ignoring the magnetic field due to the Earth, determine the value of d (in cm). What If? At what distance, d (in m) would an electron moving with the same speed as the proton moves parallel to the wire? What direction would the electron have to move? In the same direction as the proton. In the opposite direction as the proton. There is too little information to determine the direction.

The are hung from the same support bar by strings of length .080 m so that the wires run parallel to the ground. The current causes the wires to repel from each other, so they hang with an angle θ = 20◦ between the supporting strings of the two wires. Are the currents in the same or opposite directions? What is the magnitude of the current?
