To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the principles of magnetism related to current-carrying wires. ### Step 1: Understand the Problem We have two long, straight parallel wires, each carrying a current of 5 A, separated by a distance of 2.5 cm. We need to find the magnetic force experienced by a 10 cm segment of one of the wires due to the magnetic field created by the other wire. ### Step 2: Convert Units Convert the separation distance from centimeters to meters: \[ ...
