One of the two small circular coils (neither having any self-inductance) is suspended with a $V$-shaped copper wire,with its plane horizontal. The other coil is placed just below the first one with its plane horizontal. Both coils are connected in series with a $dc$ supply. The coils are found to attract each other with a force. Which one of the following statements is incorrect?

  • A
    Both the coils carry currents in the same direction.
  • B
    Coils will attract each other,even if the supply is an $ac$ source.
  • C
    Force is proportional to $d^{-1}$.
  • D
    Force is proportional to $d^{-2}$.
