Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem we are going to use the formula that defines the force acting on the current-carrying conductor by a magnetic field

$$
F=ILB
$$

From here, we can express the wire’s length as

$$
L=frac{F}{IB}
$$

If we now plug in the values we obtain the following

$$
L=frac{2.1}{7.2times 0.0089}
$$

Finally

$$
boxed{L=3.3 times 10^1textrm{m}}
$$

So, the answer is D.

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{D; }L=3.3 times 10^1textrm{m}
$$
Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem we are going to use the formula that defines the force acting on the current-carrying conductor by a magnetic field

$$
F=ILB
$$

From here, we can express the current as

$$
I=frac{F}{LB}
$$

If we now plug in the values we obtain the following

$$
I=frac{7.6times 10^{-3}}{0.19times 4.1}
$$

Finally

$$
boxed{I=9.8times 10^{-3}textrm{ A}}
$$

So, the answer is B.

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{B; }I=9.8times 10^{-3}textrm{ A}
$$
Exercise 3
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem we are going to use the formula that defines the force acting on a charged particle by a magnetic field

$$
vec F=qvec vtimes vec B=qvB
$$

If we now plug in the values we obtain the following

$$
F=7.12times 10^{-6}times 3times 10^8times 4.02times 10^{-3}
$$

Finally

$$
boxed{F=8.59textrm{ N}}
$$

So the answer is A.

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{A; }F=8.59textrm{ N}
$$
Exercise 4
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem we are going to use the formula that defines the force acting on a charged particle by a magnetic field

$$
vec F=qvec vtimes vec B=qvB
$$

From here, we can express the magnetic field as

$$
B=frac{F}{qv}
$$

If we now plug in the values we obtain the following

$$
B=frac{18}{1.6times 10^{-19}times 7.4times 10^5}
$$

Finally
$boxed{B=1.52 times 10^{14}textrm{ T}}$
So the answer is D.

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{D; }B=1.52 times 10^{14}textrm{ T}
$$
Exercise 5
Step 1
1 of 2
To general formula of the magnetic field of a solenoid is given as
$B=mu_0mu_rfrac{NI}{L}$
so we see that it depends on the core type ($mu_r$), number of turns ($N$), and the strength of the current ($I$) but doesn’t depend on the thickness of the wire $d$. So the answer is C.
Result
2 of 2
c) Thickness of the wire.
Exercise 6
Step 1
1 of 2
The false statement is B) since magnetic monopoles are still hypothetical although some 2015 research is claiming be successful in detecting them so at this point all the statements seem to be incorrect.
Result
2 of 2
The conventional answer should be B.
Exercise 7
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem, we are going to use the formula that defines the force acting on a charged particle by a magnetic field

$$
vec F=qvec vtimes vec B=qvB
$$

If we now plug in the values we obtain the following

$$
F=1.6times 10^{-19}times 4times 10^6times 0.25
$$

Finally
$boxed{F=1.6times 10^{-13}textrm{ N}}$
And by using the first right-hand rule we obtain that the force points to the left so the answer is A.

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{A) }F=1.6times 10^{-13}textrm{ N}
$$
Exercise 8
Step 1
1 of 2
To derive the units in two cases we are going to use unit definition of each physical property in the given formulas. In the first case

$$
F=qvB
$$

So we can express the magnetic field as

$$
B=frac{F}{qv}=frac{ma}{qv}
$$

Or in terms of units

$$
textrm{T}=frac{textrm{kg}cdotfrac{textrm{m}}{textrm{s}^2}}{textrm{C}cdot frac{textrm{m}}{textrm{s}}}
$$

$$
boxed{textrm{T}=frac{textrm{kg}}{textrm{C}cdottextrm{s}}}
$$

On the other hand, if we start from

$$
F=ILB
$$

$$
B=frac{F}{IL}=frac{ma}{frac{q}{t}L}
$$

Again, in terms of units

$$
T=frac{textrm{kg}cdotfrac{textrm{m}}{textrm{s}^2}}{{textrm{m}cdot frac{textrm{C}}{textrm{s}}}}
$$

which again gives

$$
boxed{textrm{T}=frac{textrm{kg}}{textrm{C}cdottextrm{s}} }
$$

Result
2 of 2
$$
textrm{T}=frac{textrm{kg}}{textrm{C}cdottextrm{s}}
$$
Exercise 9
Step 1
1 of 2
In order to solve this problem, we have to find the current in the given circuit. To do so, we employ Ohm’s law which says

$$
I=frac{V}{R}=frac{5.8}{18}
$$

which gives that

$$
I=0.32textrm{A}
$$

Now, the angle can be found from the formula

$$
F=ILBsintheta
$$

which can be solved for $theta$ to give

$$
theta=arcsin(frac{F}{ILB})
$$

$$
theta=arcsin(frac{22times 10^{-3}}{0.32times 0.14times 0.85})
$$

Which finally gives us that

$$
boxed{theta=35.3^circ}
$$

Result
2 of 2
$$
theta=35.3^circ
