A and B are two infinitely long straight parallel conductors. C is another straight conductor of length 1 m kept parallel to A and B as shown in the figure. Then, the force experienced by C is:
A
Towards A equal to 
B
Towards B equal to 
C
Towards A equal to 
D
Towards B equal to 
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
Mutual force between conductors A and C,
[towards A]
Mutual force between conductors B and C
[towards B]
Hence, the resultant force experienced by C
