The figure below shows four different sets of wires that cross each other without actually touching. The magnitude of the current is the same in all four cases, and the directions of current flow are as indicated. For which configuration will the magnetic field at the center of the square formed by the wires be equal to zero? A D.

(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation typically require integrating or extending the concepts presented thus far.) Describe the three basic interactions between electricity and magnetism.
Volcanic and other such activity at the mid-Athletic ridge extrudes material to fill the gap between separating tectonic plates associated with continental drift. The magnetization of rocks is found to reverse in a coordinated manner with distance from the ridge.
