188. In the figure below, two parallel and long wires carry electric currents passing through them. If the magnetic field at point $A$ is zero, which statement is correct?
\begin{minipage}{0.35\textwidth} [Figure: Two parallel wires labeled (1) carrying current $I_1$ to the right, and (2) carrying current $I_2$ to the right, with point A between them.] \end{minipage} \begin{minipage}{0.6\textwidth} (1) $I_2$ is in the opposite direction to $I_1$ and smaller than it.
(2) $I_2$ is in the opposite direction to $I_1$ and larger than it.
(3) $I_2$ is in the same direction as $I_1$ and larger than it.
(4) $I_2$ is in the same direction as $I_1$ and smaller than it. \end{minipage}
