hi, i know this question is a bit unnecessary but i just want to know if i got my concept right
so, here's the question
if you have a compass pointing northwards placed between two parallel wires carrying opposite current, does the needle deflect?
my answer is the needle won't deflect since the forces acting on it are opposite but the answer given is the needle deflects eastwards.
here's a better look of the question.
thanks in advance
