Two identical parallel sections of metal rods are connected parallel to a battery as shown. The two sections of metal rods are free to move. The battery is $3.3\mathrm{V}$, each metal rod has a resistance $R=1.17?$, a length of $5.5\mathrm{m}$, and a mass of $0.0018\mathrm{kg}$. The rods are separated by $0.11\mathrm{m}$. Find the magnitude of the acceleration of each rod. Neglect the resistance of the part of the circuit not specifically mentioned below. Answer in units of $\mathrm{m}/{\mathrm{s}}^2$.
