Three long, straight wires are seen end-on in the figure below. The distance between the wires is r = 0.260 m. Wires A and B carry current IA = IB = 1.66 A, and wire C carries current IC = 3.18 A. Assume (for example) the only forces exerted on wire A are due to wires B and C. Find the force per unit length exerted on the following. (Express your answers in vector form.)

(a) wire A
f_A = N/m

(b) wire B
