- Sodium ions (Na+) move at 0.851 m/s through a blood-stream 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 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 solenoid with an iron core is 25 cm long and is wrapped with 100 turns of wire. When the current through the solenoid is 10 A, the magnetic field inside it is 2.0 T. For this current, what is the permeability of the iron? If the current is turned off and then restored to 10 A, will the magnetic field necessarily return to 2.0 T?arrow_forwardConsider the system pictured in Figure P28.26. A 15.0-cm horizontal wire of mass 15.0 g is placed between two thin, vertical conductors, and a uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the page. The wire is free to move vertically without friction on the two vertical conductors. When a 5.00-A current is directed as shown in the figure, the horizontal wire moves upward at constant velocity in the presence of gravity. (a) What forces act on the horizontal wire, and (b) under what condition is the wire able to move upward at constant velocity? (c) Find the magnitude and direction of the minimum magnetic Field required to move the wire at constant speed. (d) What happens if the magnetic field exceeds this minimum value?

The loops lie in the xy plane, each carrying the same magnitude current, and the uniform magnetic field points in the positive x direction. Rank the loops by the magnitude of the torque exerted on them by the field from largest to smallest.arrow_forwardA square loop whose sides are 6.0-cm long is made with copper wire of radius 1.0 mm.
