Two long straight wires are parallel and carry current in opposite directions. The currents in the wires are 8.0 A for the left wire upward and 12 A for the right wire downward. The wires are separated by 0.40 cm.

A. The magnetic field due the left wire in mT (milli-tesla) at a point midway between the wires is:

B. The direction of the magnetic field of the left wire carrying 8.0 A at a point midway between the wires is

C The magnetic field due to the right wire carrying 12 A in mT (milli-tesla) at a point midway between the wires is:

D The direction of the magnetic field of the right wire carrying 12 A at a point midway between the wires is

E The NET magnetic field due to both the 8.0 A and 12 A wires in mT (milli-tesla) at a point midway between the wires is:
