Two parallel conductors are carrying currents 6 A and 9 A. If they are placed 2.4 m apart, where should a third conductor carrying 4.20 A in the reverse direction be placed between the 6-A and 9-A conductors such that the 9-A conductor does not experience an overall force per unit length of zero? a. ) The third conductor should be placed 7.52 micrometers from the 9-A conductor, between the 6-A and 9-A conductors. b.) The third conductor should be placed 1.68 micrometers from the 9-A conductor, between the 6-A and 9-A conductors. c.) The third conductor should be placed 4.57 micrometers from the 9-A conductor, between the 6-A and 9-A conductors. d.) The third conductor should be placed 2.57 micrometers from the 9-A conductor, between the 6-A and 9-A conductors.
