Homework Statement


PHYSICS MAGNETIC FIELD
two long parallel straight wire are separated by a distance r in vacuum. an electric current flow through each wire in opposite direction, the magnetic flux density at the centre between 2 wires is (2)(ε0)/(πr) (ANS FROM BOOK) ... can someone explain why?

my ans would be 0.5x2x(ε0)/(πr)... because the resultant between 2 wires is repulsive force...
