- AThe wires attract each other.
- BThe wires repel each other.
- CThe wires experience neither attraction nor repulsion.
- DThe forces of attraction or repulsion do not depend on current direction.
Explanation:
If two parallel wires carry current in opposite directions, they repel each other whereas if two parallel wires carry current in same direction, they attract each other.
