Two parallel wires $1 \text{ m}$ apart carry currents of $1 \text{ A}$ and $3 \text{ A}$ respectively in opposite directions. The force per unit length acting between these two wires is

$A$ current of $10 \text{ A}$ flows through a horizontal straight wire $A$ with both ends rigidly fixed. Wire $B$ is placed directly above and parallel to $A$. The weight per unit length of wire $B$ is $40 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N/m}$ and it carries a current of $20 \text{ A}$. Find the distance of wire $B$ from wire $A$ so that wire $B$ remains at rest. Also,state the direction of current flowing through it.

$A$ thin uniform rod with negligible mass and length $l$ is attached to the floor by a frictionless hinge at point $P$. $A$ horizontal spring with force constant $k$ connects the other end to a wall. The rod is in a uniform magnetic field $B$ directed into the plane of the paper. What is the extension in the spring in equilibrium when a current $i$ is passed through the rod in the direction shown? Assume the spring is initially at its natural length.

$A$ current $i$ flows through a wire in the positive $X$-direction. The magnetic field is $\overrightarrow{B} = B_0(\hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}) \ T$. What is the magnitude of the force acting on a wire segment of length $l$?
