Make a drawing and use RHR-2 to find the direction of the magnetic field of a current loop in a motor (such as in Figure 22.34). Then show that the direction of the torque on the loop is the same as produced by like poles repelling and unlike poles attracting.

What is the direction of a current that experiences the magnetic force shown in each of the three cases in Figure, assuming the current runs perpendicular to B?

How can the motion of a charged particle be used to distinguish between a magnetic and an electric field?
Calculate the size of the magnetic field 20 m below a high voltage power line. The line carries at a voltage of
Why would a magnetohydrodynamic drive work better in ocean water than in fresh water? Also, why would superconducting magnets be desirable?
