Sodium ions (Na*) move at 0.857 m/s through a bloodstream in the arm of a person standing near a large magnet. The magnetic field has a strength of 0.254 T and makes an angle of 46.0° with the motion of the sodium ions. The arm contains 90.0 cm3 of blood with a concentration of 2.00 x 1020 Na* ions per cubic centimeter. If no other ions were present in the arm, what would be the magnetic force on the arm? N

An electron moving with a speed of 2.7 x 105 m/s in the negative y direction experiences zero magneticforce. When it moves in the negative x direction, it experiences a force of 6.2 x 10-12 N that points in thepositive z direction. What are the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field? You may specify thedirection of the magnetic field either with unit vectors; x-hat, y-hat, or z-hat (i, j, k is fine too); or bydrawing a vector in the coordinate system drawn below.
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 1.1x10−15 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 5.2 cm from the neuron.
