Two long parallel conductors carry currents in opposite directions as shown. One conductor carries a current of 10 A and the distance between the wires is
Current
is adjusted, so that the magnetic field at
is zero.
is at a distance of 5 cm to the right of the 10 A current. Value of
is

- 40 A
- 30 A
- 20 A
- 10 A
The correct answer is: 30 A
From Biot-Savart’s law the magnetic field
due to a conductor carrying current
at a distance
is

Magnetic field at
due to current in second conductor is

From Fleming’s right hands rule the fields at
are directed opposite.
