The circuit shown in the figure is used to make a magnetic balance to weigh objects. The mass m to be measured is hung from the center of the bar, that is in a uniform magnetic field of 1.50 T, directed into the plane of the figure. The battery voltage can be adjusted to vary the current in the circuit. The horizontal bar is 60.0 cm long and is made of extremely light-weight material. It is connected to the battery by thin vertical wires that can support no appreciable tension; all the weight of the suspended mass m is supported by the magnetic force on the bar. A resistor with R = 5.00 Ω is in series with the bar; the resistance of the rest of the circuit is much less than this. (Figure 1) Figure 1 of 1 Part A Which point, a or b, should be the positive terminal of the battery? a b Submit Request Answer Part B If the maximum terminal voltage of the battery is 175 V, what is the greatest mass m that this instrument can measure?

A pulley and string arrangement is used to connect two objects A and B as shown in the diagram below. Here, mA = 3.85 kg and mB = 7.95 kg. The string connecting the two objects is of negligible mass and the pulley is frictionless. The objects start from rest and move with constant acceleration. (a) What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2) of each of the objects? m/s2 (b) What is the magnitude (in N) of the tension in the string? N (c) Through what distance (in m) will the two objects move in the first two seconds of motion? m

The two ends of a length of chain are attached so that the chain makes a circle. If the chain is then spun very quickly, it can roll along the ground like a bicycle tire without crumpling. Consider the rolling chain shown in the figure. Assume the chain has uniform linear mass density μ and its center of mass moves to the right at a speed v0. (a) Determine the tension in the chain in terms of μ and v0. Assume the weight of an individual link is negligible compared to the tension. T = (b) If the loop rolls over a small bump, the resulting deformation of the chain causes two transverse pulses to propagate along the chain, one moving clockwise and one moving counterclockwise. What is the speed of the pulses traveling along the chain? (Use any variable or symbol stated above as necessary.) v = (c) Through what angle (in rad) does each pulse travel during the time interval over which the loop makes one revolution? (Assume the angle is measured clockwise from the ground. ) clockwise-traveling pulse rad counterclockwise-traveling pulse rad
