Magnetic Field: Parallel Wires

Q- Two long parallel conductors, separated by 10.0 cm, carry currents in the same direction. The first wire carries current I1 = 5.00A and the second one carries I2 = 8.00A.

a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field created by I1 at the location of I2?

b) What is the force per unit length exerted by I1 on I2?

c) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field created by I2 at the location of I1?

d) What is the force per unit length exerted by I2 on I1?
