To get a uniform field in the central region between the coils, current flows in the same direction in each.
Answer: 
Explanation:
Given
Length of beam 
mass of beam 
Two forces of equal intensity acted in the opposite direction, therefore, they create a torque of magnitude

Also, the beam starts rotating about its center
So, the moment of inertia of the beam is

Torque is the product of moment of inertia and angular acceleration

Gravity is a non contact force , jump from a little high place (don't do that :P) , you wont just get stuck in the air you will fall down , this is gravity you dont need any contact
