Magnetic force between two current carrying wires

Two long parallel wires are hanging freely. If they are connected to a battery (i) in series, (ii) in parallel, what would be the effect on their positions?

  • Assertion : If two long wires, hanging freely are connected to a battery in series, they come closer to each other. Reason : Force of attraction acts between the two wires carrying current.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
    D
    If the assertion and reason both are false.

  • Assertion: If two long wires, hanging freely are connected to a battery in series, they come closer to each other. Reason: Force of attraction acts between the two wires carrying currents.

    A
    If both the assertion and reason are true and reason is a true explantion of the assertion.
    B
    If both the assertion and reason are true but the reason is not true the correct explantion of the assertion.

    There will be no force between two current carrying wires if currents are

    Two long wires are hanging freely. They are joined first in parallel and then in series and then are connected with a battery. In both cases, which type of force acts between the two wires

    Two long wires each carrying a d.c. current in the same direction are placed close to each other. Which one of the following statements is correct?

    Statement-1 Two parallel wire carrying current in same direction attract each other, whereas two proton beams moving parallel to each other repel each other Statement-2 Wire carrying current is electrically neutral, therefore it is experiencing only magnetic attraction while the electric force of repulsionn between protons is more than the magnetic attraction

    Statement-1 If a positive charge is thrown parallel to a current carrying wire it will be attracted by the wire Statement-2 If a negative charge is thrown antiparallel to a current carrying wire it will be repelled by the wire Statement-3 A current carrying wire can apply to a force on a charge placed near it
