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?

Two long parallel wire hanging freely. If they are connected in a battery parallelly. What would be the effect of their position.

Two long parallel wire hanging freely. If they are connected in a battery series. What would be the effect of their position.

How is the fuse wire connected to a circuit ? In series / parallel ?

Statement -1 : If two long wires, hanging freely are connected to a battery in series, they come closer to each other. Statement -2 : Force of repulsion acts between the two wires carrying current.

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) : When two long parallel wires, hanging freely are connected in parallel to a battery, they come close to each other. (R) : Wires carrying current m opposite direction repel each other.
