(a) IF the currents are parallel, the two fiekds are in opposite dicections in the razion between the wices. Since the currents are the same, the total field is zero along the line that runs haley between the wires, There is no possible current for which the field does not vanish, Bp Tins, (b) If the curretss are anviparallel, the flelds ate in the sane diection iu tie region benween Uke wites.
