For steady currents in vacuum, Ampère's circuital law isHere $C$ is an oriented closed curve, $d\ell$ its tangent line element, and $I_{\mathrm{enc}}$ the signed electric current through a spanning surface oriented by the right-hand rule. A circular contour about a straight infinite wire has constant tangential magnetic field, so $B(r)={\mu }_{0}I/(2\pi r)$. The Lorentz force on a length $L$ of the other wire is $IL\hat{\ell }\times B$. ThereforeThe right-hand rule makes the force on each parallel, same-direction current point toward the other wire.
