Q.
Two parallel wires carrying currents in the same direction attract each other because of
Rajasthan PMTRajasthan PMT 2007Moving Charges and Magnetism
Solution:
As shown in the figure, let the conductor Y carry current i2, situated in a magnetic field perpendicular to its length. It therefore, experiences a magnetic force, the magnitude of the force acting on a length l of Y is F=i2Bl=i2(μ02πi2R)l
From Fleming's left hand rule the direction of this force is towards X. Similarly, force per unit length of X due to Y is directed opposite to Y. Hence, the conductors attract each other.
