1. A conducting rod (L = 2.0 m) is moved along two conducting rails within a magnetic field (B). The rails are hooked up to a light bulb. The resistances of the rails and the rod are negligible, but the light bulb has a resistance of 100 Ω. The rod is moved at a velocity (v) of 10 m/s in the direction indicated. It induces a current (I) in the circuit as indicated in the figure. The magnetic field has a magnitude of 2.0 T and the direction is indicated in the figure. What is the magnitude of the induced electromagnetic field (EMF; ε)?
2. A solenoid has 100 coils/m of wire carrying a current of 10 A. What is the magnetic field produced by the solenoid?
3. A positive charge travels in a circle within a uniform magnetic field (see figure). The directions of the arrows show the velocity vectors. What is the direction of the force exerted by the magnetic field upon the charge?
4. A magnetic field of 0.5 T passes through an area of 6.3 cm2 that is perpendicular to the field. What is the magnetic flux?

8. Two wires are placed side-by-side as shown in the figure. The wires have currents of the same magnitude, but they are in opposite directions (indicated by the arrows). How will these wires interact?
9. A torus has 100 wires/cm wrapped completely around it. The radius of the torus is 0.5 m. The current through the wire is 10 A. What is the strength of the magnetic field at a point that is 1.0 mm from the outside edge of the torus?
10. A magnetic field of 1.0 × 10−4 T is experienced at a point located 5 cm from the center of a current-carrying wire. What is the magnitude of the current in the wire?
