Chapter 29: Answers to Stop to Think Questions and Odd-Numbered Exercises and Problems

Stop to Think Questions

  1. 1. Not at all. The charge exerts weak, attractive polarization forces on both ends of the compass needle, but in this configuration the forces will balance and have no net effect.

  2. 2. d. Point your right thumb in the direction of the current and curl your fingers around the wire.

  3. 3. b. Point your right thumb out of the page, in the direction of v ⃗. Your fingers are pointing down as they curl around the left side.

  4. 4. b. The right-hand rule gives a downward B⃗ for a clockwise current. The north pole is on the side from which the field emerges.

  5. 5. c. For a field pointing into the figure, v ⃗×B⃗ is to the right. But the electron is negative, so the force is in the direction of −(v⃗×B⃗).

  6. 6. b. Repulsion indicates that the south pole of the loop is on the right, facing the bar magnet; the north pole is on the left. Then the right-hand rule gives the current direction.

  7. 7. a or c. Any magnetic field to the right, whether leaving a north pole or entering a south pole, will align the magnetic domains as shown.
