EXPERIMENTATION
insert the Module DL 3155M06 in the console and set the main switch to ON;
connect the circuit as it is shown in Fig. 1.2a;
adjust the voltage +V at the maximum value;
push the pushbutton S1: the two conductors repel themselves because they are crossed by
currents acting in a different direction;
push and release the pushbutton S1 more times to observe better the phenomenon;
remove the connections;
connect the circuit as it is shown in Fig. 1.2b;
push the pushbutton S1: the two conductors attract themselves because they are crossed by
currents acting in the same direction;
push and release the pushbutton S1 more times to observe better the phenomenon;
repeat the previous operations for different values of voltage +V and observe what happens;

QUESTIONS

Two rectilinear wires crossed by currents in the same direction and then in the opposite
direction exert between them an action respectively:

Attractive; repulsive
Answer:
Repulsive; attractive

It is not possible to establish it if the current values are not known

Two rectilinear wires crossed by opposite currents the farthest they are the greatest is the
force with which they repel each other.

True Answer:

False

Remove all the connections.
