The earth’s magnetic field points toward (magnetic) north. For simplicity, assume that the field has no vertical component (as is the case near the earth’s equator). (a) If you hold a metal rod in your hand and walk toward the east, how should you orient the rod to get the maximum motional emf between its ends? (i) East-west; (ii) north-south; (iii) up-down; (iv) you get the same motional emf with all of these orientations. (b) How should you hold it to get zero emf as you walk toward the east? (i) East-west; (ii) north-south; (iii) up-down; (iv) none of these. (c) In which direction should you travel so that the motional emf across the rod is zero no matter how the rod is oriented? (i) West; (ii) north; (iii) south; (iv) straight up; (v) straight down.

- Solenoid A has length L and N turns, solenoid B has length 2L and N turns, and solenoid C has length L/2 and 2N turns. If each solenoid carries the same current, rank the magnitudes of the magnetic fields in the centers of the solenoids from largest to smallest.arrow_forwardDoes increasing the magnitude of a uniform magnetic field through which a charge is traveling necessarily mean increasing the magnetic force on the charge? Does changing the direction of the field necessarily mean a change in the force on the charge?arrow_forwardA single-turn square loop of wire, 2.00 cm on each edge, carries a clockwise current of 0.200 A. The loop is inside a solenoid, with the plane of the loop perpendicular to the magnetic field of the solenoid. The solenoid has 30.0 turns/cm and carries a clockwise current of 15.0 A. Find (a) the force on each side of the loop and (b) the torque acting on the loop.arrow_forward

The magnetic field has a strength of 0.254 T and makes an angle of 51.0 with the motion of the sodium ions. The arm contains 100 cm3 of blood with a concentration of 3.00 1020 Na+ ions per cubic centimeter. If no other ions were present in the arm, what would be the magnetic force on the arm?arrow_forwardA square, flat loop of wire is pulled at constant velocity through a region of uniform magnetic field directed perpendicular to the plane of the loop as shown in Figure OQ23.9.
