The drawing shows a thin, uniform rod, which has a length of 0.56 m and a mass of 0.0693 kg. This rod is attached to the floor by a hinge at point P. A uniform magnetic field of 0.24 T is directed perpendicular to the rod, as shown. There is a current I = 2.9 A in the rod, which does not rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. Find the angle θ. (Hint: The magnetic force may be taken to act at the center of gravity.) Number Units
