Question

Two rigid long wires carrying currents $i_1$ and $i_2$ are placed over each other. Then under influence of each other's magnetic field,

• A. the conductor 1 slides to right and conductor 2 slides downwards
• B. the conductor 1 slides to left and the conductor 2 slides up
• C. the conductor 1 rotates clockwise and conductor 2 rotates anticlockwise
• D. the conductor 1 rotates anticlockwise and conductor 2 rotates clockwise.

Answer 1

The correct option is C the conductor 1 rotates clockwise and conductor 2 rotates anticlockwise

For image $1$

Due to conductor $2$

$\therefore$ conductor $1$ move clockise

For Image $2$

Due to conductor $1$

$\therefore$ Conductor $2$ rotates anticlockwise

$\therefore$ Option $C$ is correct.
