Two long wires are hanging freely. They are joined first in parallel and then in series and then are connected with a battery. In both cases,which type of force acts between the two wires?

  • A
    Attraction force when in parallel and repulsion force when in series
  • B
    Repulsion force when in parallel and attraction force when in series
  • C
    Repulsion force in both cases
  • D
