The force per unit length between the two wires is
Explanation:
The magnitude of the force per unit length exerted between two current-carrying wires is given by
where
is the vacuum permeability
are the currents in the two wires
r is the separation between the two wires
For the wires in this problem, we have
r = 2.00 cm = 0.02 m
Substituting into the equation, we find
