Two very long parallel wires are a distance d apart and carry equal currents in opposite directions. The locations where the net magnetic field due to these currents is equal to zero are
 
  A) midway between the wires.
  B) a distance d/2 to the left of the left wire and also a distance d/2 to the right of the right wire.
  C) a distance d to the left of the left wire and also a distance d to the right of the right wire.
  D) a distance d/ to the left of the left wire and also a distance d/ to the right of the right wire.
  E) The net field is not zero anywhere.

Question 2

Two long parallel wires placed side-by-side on a horizontal table carry identical size currents in opposite directions.
