Answer:

The magnitude of the current in the second wire is 3.3A

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question:

Two straight parallel wires are separated by 6.7 cm. There is a 2.5-A current flowing in the first wire. If the magnetic field strength is found to be zero between the two wires at a distance of 2.9 cm from the first wire, what is the magnitude of the current in the second wire?
