Question

Two parallel wires carry currents in the opposite direction. If wire 1 has a current of i, while wire 2 has a current of 2 i, which current feels the stronger force?

Answer 1

If two parallel wires carry current in opposite directions, they repel each other whereas if two parallel wires carry current in same direction, they attract each other.

force of the wire2 will be more compared to that of wire1.

According to force formula, wire2 will generate more force compared to wire1

force=magnetic flux density × current × length

here,

current is directly proportional to the force, so with increase in current the force will also increase.

force depends on the length and current of the wire.

So, from this we can conclude that wire 2 will produce more force compared to wire 1.
