A large part of motors (converting electrical and chemical energy into kinetic ener is linked to the idea of have something with a current in a magnetic field. For complete wire loops, this creates a torque and causes rotation. Below is an image this case - a wire loop (with the direction of current in purple) in a magnetic field. The axis of rotation is shown. This means the loop can only rotate about that axis Axis of rotation B (Magnetic Field) What is the direction of the rotation of the bottom of the loop? Make sure to consider the direction of the current when finding this direction.

A 25-cm nod moves at 5.0 m/s in a plane perpendicular to a magnetic field of strength 0.25 T. The rod, velocity vector, and magnetic field vector are mutually perpendicular, as indicated in tire accompanying figure. Calculate (a) the magnetic force on an electron in tire rod, (b) the electric field in the rod, and (c) the potential difference between the ends of the rod. (d) What is the speed of the rod if the potential difference is 1.0 V?
The copper sheet shown below is partially in a magnetic field. When it is pulled to the right, a resisting force pulls it to the left. Explain. What happen if the sheet is pushed to the left?
The right-hand rule is a way to determine the direction of the magnetic field produced by moving charges. Imagine wrapping your right hand around the path of the charges so that the positive charges (or the current) flow from the little finger side of your fist to the thumb side (Figure 8.53). Then your fingers circle the path in the same direction as the magnetic field lines. Use this rule to verify the directions of the magnetic fields shown in Figures 8.8 and 8.10. How would you use the rule to find the direction of the magnetic field lines around a moving negative charge?
What creates a magnetic Hold? More than one answer may be correct, (a) a stationary object with electric charge (b) a moving object with electric charge (c) a stationary conductor carrying electric current (d) a difference in electric potential (e) a charged capacitor disconnected from a battery and at rest Note: In Chapter 34, we will see that a changing electric field also creates a magnetic field.

Neurons in our bodies carry weak currents that produce detectable magnetic fields. A technique called magnetoencephalography, or MEG, is used to study electrical activity in the brain using this concept This technique is capable of detecting magnetic fields as weak as 1.0 1015 T. Model the neuron as a long wire carrying a current and find the current it must carry to produce a field of this magnitude at a distance of 4.0 cm from the neuron.
What is the direction of the velocity of a negative charge that experiences the magnetic force shown in each of the three cases in Figure 22.51, assuming it moves perpendicular to B?
Integrated Concepts A lightning bolt produces a rapidly varying magnetic field. It the belt strikes the earth vertically and acts like a current in a long straight wire, it will induce a voltage in a loop aligned like that in Figure 23.57 (b). What voltage is induced in a 1.00 m diameter loop 50.0 m from a 2.00106A lightning strike, if the current falls to zero in 25.0s ? (b) Discuss circumstances under which such a voltage would produce noticeable consequences.
(a) Viewers of Star Trek hear of an antimatter drive on the Starship Enterprise. One possibility for such a futuristic energy source is to store antimatter charged particles in a vacuum chamber, circulating in a magnetic field, and then extract them as needed. Antimatter annihilates with normal matter, producing pure energy. What strength magnetic field is needed to hold antiprotons, moving at 5.00107m/s in a circular path 2.00 m in radius? Antiprotons have the same mass as protons but the opposite (negative) charge. (b) Is this field strength obtainable with today’s technology or is it a futuristic possibility?

Qualitatively describe the differences between the fields and the entities responsible for the field lines.
