Question 5

Two particles enter a region with a uniform magnetic field (image 5). Particle $$a$$ curves more sharply than particle $$b. $$What can you conclude about their charges if their velocities are equal?

Accepted Answer

Particle $$a$$ has a larger charge magnitude than particle $$b$$

Question 6

In the velocity selector shown in image 6, what is the required direction of the magnetic field $$\vec{B} so $$that electrons moving to the right pass through undeflected if the electric field $$\vec{E}$$ points upward?

Question 9

A rectangular loop of wire with width $$w$$ and height $$h$$ carries a current $$I in a $$uniform magnetic field $$\vec{B} as $$shown in image 9. What is the net force on the loop?

Accepted Answer

$$0$$

Question 10

A coil is placed between the poles of a magnet as shown in image 10. What physical principle allows the coil to rotate and move the pointer on the scale?

Accepted Answer

Torque due to the interaction of the current and the magnetic field

Question 11

If there is a current in the loop in the direction shown in image 12, what will the loop do?

Accepted Answer
