Two long parallel wires placed side-by-side on a horizontal table carry identical size currents in opposite directions. the wire on your right carries current toward you, and the wire on your left carries current away from you. from your point of view, the magnetic field at the point exactly midway between the two wires
a) points away from you.
b) is zero.
c) points toward you.
d) points down.
e) points up.

D) points down.

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule to determine the direction of the magnetic field produced by each wire:

- Thumb: direction of the current in the wire

- The other fingers wrapped around the wire: direction of the magnetic field

So let's apply this rule to both wires:

- Wire on the right:

-- Thumb: direction of current --> toward you

-- Other fingers: direction of magnetic field --> point down (at a point on the left of the wire, which is where we want to determine the total field)

- Wire on the left:

-- Thumb: direction of current -->away from you

-- Other fingers: direction of magnetic field --> point down (at a point on the right of the wire, which is where we want to determine the total field)

So, at the point exactly midway between the two wires, both magnetic fields point down, so when they add together the total field will also point down.

some think that theories become laws, but theories and laws have separate and distinct roles in the scientific method. a law is a description of an observed phenomenon in the natural world that hold true every time it is tested. it doesn't explain why something is true; it just states that it is true.

answer: the correct answer is   air pressure at the top of mount everest is higher than at the bottom of the grand canyon.

hope this : )
