Question

Shown are six arrangements of long, straight wires carrying identical currents into or out of the page. The spacing between adjacent wires is either d or 2d. Rank the arrangements according to the magnitude of the net force on the underlined wire, smallest first. If two arrangements have equal force, enter them alphabetically. For example, if C and A have the lowest force, then D, then B, E, F, enter ACDBEF.
