Explanation:  If two parallel wires have currents traveling in the same direction, the magnetic fields generated by those currents between the wires will both point in opposite directions resulting in the wires attracting each other.

The formula used to calculate these attractive or repulsive forces is: F=B perpendicular​	 IL.That is, F 12​	 =(oI 1​	 /2r)I 2​	 L 2​	 F 12​	 =(o/2r)I 1​	 I 2​	 L 2​	 Thus, F 12​	 =(2×10 −7 /r)I 1​	 I 2​	 L 2​	 .

​  

Answer: Hence, if the current is doubled in the parallel wires, the attractive force increases by 4 times. That is, 4×10−3N.
