An arbitrarily curved wire that carries a current between two endpoints in the presence of a uniform magnetic field will experience the same net magnetic force as a straight wire carrying the same current between the same endpoints. Essentially, any forces experienced by parts of the wire that curve or twist away from the straight-line path are canceled out by forces on sections that curve back toward the original path. Furthermore, if the wire forms a closed loop in between the endpoints, the net force on the closed loop is zero. Using this result, consider a town where the Earth's magnetic field has a magnitude of 51.3 μT. The magnetic field vector lies in a vertical plane defined by the north-south and up-down axes, and it points 60.0∘ below the northward direction. In this town, a storefront window lies along the north-south vertical plane, and in the window is a neon sign (which is a thin current-carrying discharge tube). The sign carries a 35.1 mA current, starting from the lower south corner of the window, and ending at the opposite corner, which is 1.32 m to the north and 0.850 m upward. The sign spells out the word "BURGERS" between the two points. What is the net vector magnetic force (in μN ) on the neon sign? (Take east to be the +x-axis, up to be the +y-axis, and south to be the +z-axis. Do not include units in your answer.) F→B = μN

Figure (a) shows an arrangement of three charged particles. Particles A and C are fixed on the x axis, but particle B can be moved along a circle centered on particle A. During the movement, a radial line between A and B makes an angle θ relative to the positive direction of the x axis (see Figure (b)). The curves in Figure (c) below give, for two situations, the magnitude Fnet of the net electrostatic force on particle A due to the other particles. That net force is given as a function of angle θ and as a multiple of a basic amount F0. For example on curve 1, at θ = 180∘, we see that Fnet = 2F0. (a) For the situation corresponding to curve 1, what is the ratio of the charge of particle C to that of particle B (including sign)? (b) For the situation corresponding to curve 2, what is that ratio? Assume d1 = d2 = d = 7.9 m. (a) Number Units (b) Number Units

Several species of bacteria, including Geobacter metallireducens, have been shown to "eat" electrons, bypassing the usual process of metabolizing sugar to obtain energy. During this process, the bacteria, which already have negatively charged cell membranes, acquire an even larger net negative charge, typically between 10.0 e and 85.0 e in magnitude. Individual Geobacter are typically 4.00 μm in diameter. What are the magnitude and the direction of the electric field of a bacterium with a net negative charge of magnitude 70.0 e at a distance of 1.80 mm from the microbe? (a) the magnitude (in N/C) N/C (b) the direction radially outward radially inward What are the magnitude and the direction of the electric force on a second bacterium of net negative charge 80.0 e distance of 1.80 mm from the first bacterium? (c) the magnitude (in N) N (d) the direction away from the first bacterium towards the first bacterium
