Three long, straight and parallel wires carrying currents are arranged as shown in the figure. The wire C which carries a current of5.0A is so placed that it experiences no force. The distance of wire C from wire D is x centimetre. Then x is.

a
9 cm
b
7 cm
c
5 cm
d
3 cm

detailed solution

Correct option is A

For no force on wire C, force on wire C due to wireD = force on wire C due to wire B⇒μ04π×2×15×5x×1=μ04π×2×5×10(15−x)×t⇒x=9cm
