An arrangement of three parallel straight wires A, B, and C (carrying current in same direction) are placed perpendicular to the plane of paper. A and C are at a distance from B, and the angle . Magnitude of force per unit length on the middle wire ‘B’ is:

- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Force per unit length between two wires: Force on B due to A (): (towards A)Force on B due to C (): (towards C)Since current directions are same, forces are attractive.As :
(Note: Some sources might simplify differently depending on constants).
