Two long straight parallel conductors carrying currents I1 and I2 are separated by a distance d. If the currents are flowing in the same direction, show how the magnetic field produced by one exerts an attractive force on the other. Obtain the expression for this force and hence define 1 ampere.

उत्तर
Fab = Force experienced by wire 'a' of length 'l' due to the magnetic field of wire 'b'
Fba = Force experienced by wire 'a' of length 'l' due to the magnetic field of wire 'b'
Ba = Magnetic field due to wire 'a'
Bb = Magnetic field due to wire 'b'
Ba = `(mu_0I_a)/(2rd)`
Since `vecF = i(vecl xx vecB)`
`F_(ba) = I_1. l(mu_0I_2)/(2rd)`
Similarly, `F(ab) = I_1.l(mu_0I_2)/(2rd)`

The direction of force experienced by wire 'a' is toward wire 'b'. (As shown in the diagram).
Similarly, the direction of force experienced by wire 'b' is toward wire 'a'. Thus, the force is attractive.
If two long wires are placed in a vacuum at a separation of 1 m, one Ampere would be defined as the current in each wire that would produce a force of 2 × 10–7Nm–1 per unit length of wire.

Two infinitely long straight wire A1 and A2 carrying currents I and 2I flowing in the same direction are kept' distance apart. Where should a third straight wire A3 carrying current 1.5 I be placed between A1 and A2 so that it experiences no net force due to A1 and A2? Does the net force acting on A3 depend on the current flowing through it?
