Two long straight wires carrying equal currents are perpendicular to one another (they are insulated). Describe the forces between them? If the wires are free to move which way do they move due to this force?
Physics students, wanted to investigate the forces of attractioh (F) between two parallel conductors carrying currents l1 and l2
(also known as Ampere's Law)
The students noticed that as the length of the parallel
conductors (/) was increased the force of attraction between
the conductors (F) also increased. The data collected is in the
