    Current - two parallel conductors

    Homework Statement Two long parallel wires are separated by 4.0mm. The current in one of the wires is twice the other current. If the magnitude if the force on a 2.0m length of one of the wires is equal to 7.0μN, what is the greater of the two currents?Homework Equations...

    Is Bulb B the Brightest When the Capacitor Has Half its Maximum Charge?

    Since the capacitor is at 50% of its maximum charge, then the potential difference across its plates is 55V. Does that mean that I would apply that 55V to the entire closed loop that contains bulb A and the capacitor? Would I treat bulb A as a resistor in series with C? Again, the geometry of...
