The drawing shows a particle carrying a positive charge +q at the coordinate origin, as well as a target located in the third quadrant. A uniform magnetic field is directed perpendicularly into the plane of the paper. The charge can be projected in the plane of the paper only, along the positive or negative x or y axis. There are four possible directions (+x, -x, +y, -y) for the initial velocity of the particle. The particle can be made to hit the target for only two of the four directions. Which two directions are they? -x, +y -y, +x +y, -y +x, -x

Suppose that you have two bars. Bar 1 is a permanent magnet and bar 2 is not a magnet, but is made from a ferromagnetic material like iron. A third bar (bar 3), which is known to be a permanent magnet, is brought close to one end of bar 1 and then to one end of bar 2. Which one of the following statements is true? Bars 1 and 3 will always be attracted to each other, while bars 2 and 3 will either be attracted to or repelled from each other. Bars 1 and 3 will always be repelled from each other, while bars 2 and 3 will either be attracted to or repelled from each other. Bars 1 and 3 will either be attracted to or repelled from each other, while bars 2 and 3 will always be repelled from each other. Bars 1 and 3 will either be attracted to or repelled from each other, while bars 2 and 3 will always be attracted to each other.
Bar 1 and 3 will either be attracted to or repelled from each other, while bars 2 and 3 will always be attracted to each other.
Two particles, having the same charge but different velocities, are moving in a constant magnetic field (see the drawing, where the velocity vectors are drawn to scale). Which particle, if either, experiences the greater magnetic force? Particle 1 experiences the greater force, because it is moving perpendicular to the magnetic field. Particle 2 experiences the greater force, because it has the greater speed. Particle 2 experiences the greater force, because a component of its velocity is parallel to the magnetic field. Both particles experience the same magnetic force, because the component of each velocity that is perpendicular to the magnetic field is the same.
Both particles experience the same magnetic force, because the component of each velocity that is perpendicular to the magnetic field is the same.
Suppose that the positive charge in Figure 21.9a were launched from the negative plate toward the positive plate, in a direction opposite to the electric field Upper E Overscript right-arrow EndScripts. A sufficiently strong electric field would prevent the charge from striking the positive plate. Suppose that the positive charge in Figure 21.9b were launched from the south pole toward the north pole, in a direction opposite to the magnetic field Upper B Overscript right-arrow EndScripts. Would a sufficiently strong magnetic field prevent the charge from reaching the north pole? Yes. No, because a magnetic field cannot exert a force on a charged particle that is moving antiparallel to the field. No, because the magnetic force would cause the charge to move faster as it moved toward the north pole.
No, because a magnetic field cannot exert a force on a charged particle that is moving antiparallel to the field.
In a TV commercial that advertises a soda pop, a strong electromagnetic picks up a delivery truck carrying cans of the soft drink. The picture switches to the interior of the truck, where cans are seen to fly upward and stick to the roof just beneath the electromagnet. Are these cans made entirely of aluminum? No, because aluminum is more dense than iron. No, because aluminum is a non-ferromagnetic material. Yes, because iron is more dense than aluminum.
No, because aluminum is a non-ferromagnetic material
A positive charge moves along a circular path under the influence of a magnetic field. The magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of the circle, as in Figure 21.11. If the velocity of the particle is reversed at some point along the path, will the particle retrace its path? Yes. No, because it will move around a different circle in a counterclockwise direction.
No, because it will move around a different circle in a counterclockwise direction.
Suppose that you accidentally use your left hand, instead of your right hand, to determine the direction of the magnetic force that acts on a positive charge moving in a magnetic field. Do you get the correct answer? Yes, because either hand can be used. No, because the direction you get will be perpendicular to the correct direction. No, because the direction you get will be opposite to the correct direction.
No, because the direction you get will be opposite to the correct direction.
A charged particle, passing through a certain region of space, has a velocity whose magnitude and direction remain constant. If it is known that the external electric field is zero everywhere, then can you conclude that the external magnetic field is also zero? Ignore gravity. No, because the particle's acceleration isn't necessarily zero. No, because the particle could be moving parallel or anti-parallel to the direction of the magnetic field. Yes, because the particle's acceleration is zero.
No, because the particle could be moving parallel or anti-parallel to the direction of the magnetic field.
