The wire in Figure 21.37 carries a current of 12 A. Suppose that a second long, straight wire is placed right next to this wire. The current in the second wire is 28 A. Use Ampère s law to find the magnitude of the magnetic field at a distance of r = 0.72 m from the wires when the currents are
(a) In the same direction and
(b) In opposite directions.
