Answer: North
(3) 2. An electron experiences a downward magnetic force of 7.20 × 10-14 N when it is travelling
at 3.00 × 105 m/s south through a magnetic field. Calculate the magnitude of the
magnetic field and determine its direction using the left-hand rule. Explain all finger
directions and the palm direction.
m
Answer: Pdf… The electron is negative, so you use the left hand. The palm faces

downward to match the magnetic force, and the thumb points south to match to
co
direction the charge is moving. Next to this, the fingers point east for the direction

experiences a magnetic force directed to the north. Using the appropriate hand rule,
determine if the charge is negative or positive. Explain all finger directions and the palm

direction.

ed d
alpha particle that is travelling upwards at a speed of 3.00 x 10 5 m/s through a

ar stu
0.525 T west magnetic field. Explain all finger directions and the palm direction.
Answer: Pdf… using the right hand for the particles positive charge, the thumb is pointing up for
the particle direction, the fingers are pointing west for the field direction, naturally the

Answer: The motion of the magnet is Down causing the electrons to move clockwise. This
is
clockwise direction causes the pole on the conductor close to the magnet to be north and

the pole farther from the magnet to the south. For this all to happen the pole on the
magnet closest to the conductor would also be North and the pole on the other end of the
magnet would be south.

5. Give three different ways the strength of the magnetic force created in a solenoid can be

(3) increased.
Answer: 1.) Increase the amount of times the wire is wrapped around the tube
2.) Decrease resistance in the circuit by using as more conductive wire or
sh
shortening the length between the tube and the electrical source to
effectively increase the current
3.) Increase the voltage to effectively increase the current
(2) 6. Explain why the generator effect would occur in the same way if the wire was moved
rather than the magnet.
Answer: The generator effect is the result of relative motion between the wire and the magnet so
as long as one or both components are in motion, the generator effect is happening.

another? Explain your answer.

Answer: They would repel each other. The magnetic fields surrounding each wire at the point
closest to the other wire’s field is moving in the same directions to one another. The field
o
of one wire is moving up and the field on another is moving up. Magnetic fields that are
aC s
the same repel each other and so the wires would separate.
