Two long straight wires are arranged parallel to each other and are kept $20$ cm apart in vacuum. They carry currents of $2$ $A$ and $4$ $A$ respectively in the same direction. What will be the magnetic force on a length of $10$ cm of either wire? $(\mu_0 = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \text{ SI units})$

  • A
    $10^{-7} \text{ N}$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^{-7} \text{ N}$
  • C
    $4 \times 10^{-7} \text{ N}$
  • D
    $8 \times 10^{-7} \text{ N}$
