Two infinitely long straight wires $A$ and $B$, each carrying current $I$, are placed on the $x$ and $y$-axes, respectively. The current in wires $A$ and $B$ flows along $-\hat{i}$ and $\hat{j}$ directions, respectively. The force on a charged particle having charge $q$, moving from position $r = d(\hat{i} + \hat{j})$ with velocity $v = v\hat{i}$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{\mu_0 I v}{2 \pi d} \hat{j}$
  • B
    $\frac{\mu_0 I q v}{\pi d} \hat{j}$
  • C
    $\frac{\mu_0 I q v}{\sqrt{2} \pi d} \hat{k}$
  • D
    $0$
