Two very long straight parallel wires carry steady currents I and -I. The distance between the wires is 'd'. At a certain instant of time, a point charge 'q' is at a point equidistant from the two wires, in the plane of wires. Its instanteous velocity 'v' is `bot` to plane. The magnitude of force due to magnetic field acting on charge at this instant is:

A

`(mu_(0)I qv)/(2pi d)`

B

`(mu_(0)I qv)/(pi d)`

C

`(2mu_(0)Iqv)/(pi d)`

D

`zero`
