**Problem 11**

In Fig. 29-42, two long straight wires are perpendicular to the page and separated by distance \( d_1 = 0.75 \, \text{cm} \). Wire 1 carries \( 6.5 \, \text{A} \) into the page. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (into or out of the page) of the current in wire 2 if the net magnetic field due to the two currents is zero at point \( P \) located at distance \( d_2 = 1.50 \, \text{cm} \) from wire 2?

**Diagram Explanation**

The diagram shows two wires: Wire 1 and Wire 2. 

- **Wire 1**: Indicated with a circle with an "X", representing that the current flows into the page.
- **Wire 2**: Indicated with a circle with a dot, representing that the current can flow out of the page (though this is what needs to be determined).
- Wire 1 and Wire 2 are separated by a distance \( d_1 = 0.75 \, \text{cm} \).
- Point \( P \) is located at distance \( d_2 = 1.50 \, \text{cm} \) from Wire 2. 

Figure 29-42 illustrates the positioning of the wires and point \( P \), essential for solving the problem regarding the magnetic fields created by the currents through these wires.
