Two parallel long wires carry currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ with $i_1 > i_2$. When the currents are in the same direction,the magnetic field midway between the wires is $10 \, \mu T$. When the direction of $i_2$ is reversed,it becomes $40 \, \mu T$. The ratio $i_1/i_2$ is

  • A
    $3 : 4$
  • B
    $11 : 7$
  • C
    $7 : 11$
  • D
    $5 : 3$
