Answer:

A. The force between the wires Is attractive, this is because there are two wires of equal current flowing in the same direction thus using the right hand rule the force vectors of the two wires point to each other.

B: see attached file for explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given two infinite, parallel wires each carrying current I. The wires are-example-1
