Three long wires all lie in an

plane parallel to the

axis. They intersect the

axis at the origin,

, and

, where

. The two outer wires each carry a current of

in the positive

direction. What is the magnitude of the force on a

section of either of the outer wires if the current in the center wire is

in the positive

direction and

in the negative

direction? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units
