Two straight parallel wires,both carrying $10 \ A$ in the same direction,attract each other with a force of $1 \times 10^{-3} \ N$. If both currents are doubled,the force of attraction will be:

  • A
    $1 \times 10^{-3} \ N$
  • B
    $2 \times 10^{-3} \ N$
  • C
    $4 \times 10^{-3} \ N$
  • D
    $0.25 \times 10^{-3} \ N$
