Question
A steady current (I1) flows through a long straight wire. Another wire carrying steady current (I2) in the same direction is kept close and parallel to the first wire. Show with the help of a diagram how the magnetic field due to the current I1 exerts a magnetic force on the second wire. Write the expression for this force.
✓

Answer


$\text{F}_{12} = \text{I}_{2}\text{IB}_{1}$

$\text{F}_{12} = \frac{\mu_{o}\text{I}_{1}\text{I}_{2}}{2\pi\text{d}}\text{l}$.
