Options:

A) $ 1.4\times {{10}^{-4}}N $ towards the right

B) $ 1.4\times {{10}^{-4}}N $ towards the left

C) $ 2.6\times {{10}^{-4}}N $ towards the right

D) $ 2.6\times {{10}^{-4}}N $ towards the left

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] $ F=\frac{4\pi \times {{10}^{-7}}\times 20\times 10\times 10\times {{10}^{-2}}}{2\pi \times 2\times {{10}^{-2}}} $ $ -\frac{4\pi \times {{10}^{-7}}\times 10\times 30\times 10\times {{10}^{-2}}}{2\pi \times 10\times {{10}^{-2}}} $ $ =1.4\times {{10}^{-4}}N $ towards right.
