Given below are two statements: 

Assertion (A):

Two straight current-carrying conductors A and B are lying in a vertical plane as shown. The separation between them is h and mass per unit length is λ. Keeping A fixed, when B is raised by a small height dh, the net work done by external force per unit length will be λgdh.

Reason (R): The work done by magnetic field during this process is non-zero.
1. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is True but (R) is False.
4. (A) is False but (R) is True.

Given below are two statements: 

Assertion (A): Two parallel wires carrying current in the same direction attract each other, whereas two proton beams moving parallel to each other repel each other.
Reason (R): Wire-carrying current is electrically neutral, therefore it is experiencing only magnetic attraction while the electric force of repulsion between protons is more than magnetic attraction. 
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
2. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
3. (A) is true but (R) is false.
4. Both (A) and (R) are false.
