As we discussed in

Force between two parallel current carrying conductors -

F=\frac{\mu }{4\pi } \frac{2I_{1 I_{2}}}{a} l

\frac{F}{l}=\frac{\mu o}{4\pi } \frac{2I_{1 I_{2}}}{a}

- wherein

I1 and I2 current carrying two parallel wires 

a-seperation between two wires 

 

 

 

Force of attraction between wires =\frac{\mu _{0}i^{2}L}{2\pi d}

 


Option 1)

attract each other with a force of   \frac{\mu _{0}i^{2}}{(2\pi d^{2})}
