To solve the question regarding the interaction between two parallel current-carrying conductors, we will analyze the situation step by step for both cases: when the currents are in the same direction and when they are in opposite directions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Setup**: - We have two parallel conductors (let's call them Wire A and Wire B). - Each wire carries an electric current. ...
