Question
Two very long parallel conductors are located at a distance of 2 a from each other, perpendicular to the
plane of the figure below. The left-side conductor is carrying a current of i= 4 A directed into the page.
What current i, (magnitude and direction) must flow through right-side conductor to produce a zero
magnetic field at point P₂? Use out of the page as the positive direction and a = 3 cm and b = 14 cm.
