Two long, parallel wires are separated by a distance of 3.80 cm. The force per unit length that each wire exerts on the other is 3.80×10−5 N/m, and the wires repel each other. The current in one wire is 0.600 A.

What is the current in the second wire? Express your answer in amperes.

Are the two currents in the same direction or in opposite directions?
