\(A,B, ~\text{and}~C\) are parallel conductors of equal length carrying currents \(I, I,~\text{and}~2I\) respectively. The distance between \(A\) and \(B\) is \(x\). The distance between \(B~\text{and}~C\) is also \(x\)\(F_1\) is the force exerted by \(B\) on \(A\) and \(F_2\) is the force exerted by \(C\) on \(A\) choose the correct answer:

                       
1. \(F_1 = 2F_2\)
2. \(F_2 = 2F_1\)
3. \(F_1 = F_2\)
