Two straight horizontal parallel wires carry the same current in the same direction, and \(d\) is the distance between them. You are given a small magnetic needle that is freely suspended. Which of the following positions will have the needle's orientation independent of the magnitude of the current in the wires?
1. At a distance \(\frac{d}{2}\) from any of the wires in any plane.
2. At a distance \(\frac{d}{3}\) from any of the wires in the horizontal plane.
3. Anywhere on the circumference of a vertical circle of radius \(d\) and centre halfway between the wires.
4. At points halfway between the wires in the horizontal plane.
