Assertion: In electric circuits,wires carrying currents in opposite directions are often twisted together.
Reason: If the wires are not twisted together,the combination of the wires forms a current loop,and the magnetic field generated by the loop might affect adjacent circuits or components.

- BIf both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
- CIf the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
- DIf both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

View Solution$A$ circular coil of radius $R$ is carrying a current $I_{1}$ in an anticlockwise sense. $A$ long straight wire is carrying a current $I_{2}$ in the negative direction of the $x$-axis. Both are placed in the same plane and the distance between the centre of the coil and the straight wire is $d$. The magnetic field at the centre of the coil will be zero for the value of $d$ equal to:
Two long parallel wires carrying currents $8 \,A$ and $15 \,A$ in opposite directions are placed at a distance of $7 \,cm$ from each other. $A$ point $P$ is equidistant from both the wires such that the lines joining the point to the wires are perpendicular to each other. The magnitude of the magnetic field at point $P$ is $(\sqrt{2}=1.4)$ $(\mu_0=4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \,T \cdot m/A)$.
