    Two parallel wires of equal lengths are separated by a distance of 33 m from each other. The currents flowing through first and second wire is 33 A and 4.54.5 A respectively in opposite directions. The resultant magnetic field at mid point of both the wires is (μ0\mu_0=permeability of free space)
