Problem

Two long, parallel conductors AA and BB separated by 8 cm8\,\text{cm} carry currents IA=20 AI_{A}=20\,\text{A} and IB=30 AI_{B}=30\,\text{A} in the same direction. (a) Show that there exists a point on the line joining the conductors where the net magnetic field is zero. (b) Calculate the distance of this point from conductor AA. (c) Find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at the midpoint of ABAB.
