Two long parallel wires are at a distance of $1 \ m$. Both of them carry $1 \ A$ of current. The force of attraction per unit length between the two wires is

  • A
    $1 \ N/m$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^{-7} \ N/m$
  • C
    $1 \times 10^{-2} \ N/m$
  • D
    $4\pi \times 10^{-7} \ N/m$

$A$ long wire $A$ carries a current of $10 \, A$. Another long wire $B$,which is parallel to $A$ and separated by $0.1 \, m$ from $A$,carries a current of $5 \, A$ in the opposite direction to that in $A$.
