Answer:
The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m
current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA
current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA
Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;
where;
μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A
Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length
Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m
