Consider the two-dimensional Cartesian plane. Two conductors are placed at x = 2 m and x = 7 m, respectively. Both conductors carry current flowing upwards. The first conductor carries 6 amperes, while the second conductor carries 2 amperes. At what x-coordinate should a third conductor be placed in between the two conductors so the third conductor experiences zero force?
