Two coaxial solenoids $1$ and $2$ of the same length are placed such that one is inside the other. The number of turns per unit length are ${n_1}$ and ${n_2}$. The currents ${i_1}$ and ${i_2}$ are flowing in opposite directions. The magnetic field inside the inner coil is zero. This is possible when:
