Ans. a
3What is the strength of the B-field at point P?
Ans. 4.8 x 10-5 T
4What is the direction of the B-field at point P?
Ans. Out of screen
5Electrons flow along a wire directed out of the
page. What is the direction of the magnetic
force on the wire?
Ans. down
6What is the magnitude of the B-field at point P,
if the current is 1 A?
Ans. 5 x 10-6 T
7Which diagram shows the correct magnetic field
around the wire?

attract or repel?
Ans. attract
11Which is correct?
Ans. B and D
12What is the correct polarity on the paper clips?
Ans. D
13Where is the North pole?
Ans. C (ignore current arrows look at , - to
determine current flow)
14What is the direction of the magnetic field at
the center of the loop?
Ans. Into screen
15Where is the South pole?
Ans. D
16What happens to the strength of the field if the
resistance decreases?
Ans. strengthens
17What is the resistance? Where is the North pole?
Ans. 8 ? D
18What is the direction of the magnetic force on
the segment AB?
Ans. Out of screen
19What is the direction of electron flow in the
wire?
Ans. Down wire from B to A
20What is the direction of the current in the coil?
Ans. Down in front
21Where is the field strongest?

into screen
24If this wire were made from a loose chain, would
it expand to form a circle, compact to a point,
or nothing?
Ans. compact
25Which shows the correct electric field around a
negative charge?
