MCQ
Two infinitely long parallel wires having linear charge densities $\lambda_1$ and $\lambda_2$ respectively are placed at a distance of R metres. The force per unit length on either wire will be $\left(\mathrm{K}=\frac{1}{4 \pi \varepsilon_0}\right)$ 
  • A
    $\mathrm{K} \frac{2 \lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}^2}$
  • $\mathrm{K} \frac{2 \lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}}$
  • C
    $\mathrm{K} \frac{\lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}^2}$
  • D
    $\mathrm{K} \frac{\lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}}$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$\mathrm{K} \frac{2 \lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}}$
(b) $\mathrm{K} \frac{2 \lambda_1 \lambda_2}{\mathrm{R}}$
