Explanation / Answer

here,

PART A:

The direction of the magnetic field is perpendicular to the wire and is in the direction the fingers of your right hand would curl if you wrapped them around the wire with your thumb in the direction of the current.

so due to current flowing in wire 1 field will be "out of the screen".

PART B:
to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge, F, point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of v, the fingers in the direction of B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of F.

so, the direction of magantic force will be towards left. as the both wire will repel each other.
