Answer:
A. Attractive
B. ( μ₀I² ) / ( 2πd )
Explanation:
A. We know that currents in the same direction attract, and currents in the opposite direction repel, according to ampere's law. In this case the current in the two wires are flowing in the same direction, and hence the force between the two wires are attractive.
B. Suppose that two wires of length and both carry the current in the same direction ( given ). In the presence of a magnetic field produced by wire 1, a force of magnitude m say, is experienced by wire 2. The magnitude of the magnetic field produced by wire 1 at distance say d, from it's axis, should thus be the following -
= μ₀I / 2πd
The force experienced by wire 2 should thus be -
= I( )
= I Sin( 90 )
= I ( μ₀I / 2πd )
Therefore the force per unit length experienced by wire 2 toward wire 1 should be ...
( / ) = ( μ₀I² ) / ( 2πd ) ... which is our solution
<span>It is important to emphasize that this statement of the 2nd law applies to the spontaneous flow of heat from hot to cold. It is possible, of course, to make a cool object in a warm place cooler - this is what a refrigerator does - but this involves the input of some external energy. As such, the flow of heat is not spontaneous in this .</span>
I believe the answer is potential energy if i remember correctly.
