<img src="./images/loop_in_B_field.png" align="center" style="width: 550px";/> The force on a segment of wire $L$ is $\mathbf{F} = I \mathbf{L} \times \mathbf{B}$ A current-carrying wire loop is in a constant magnetic field $\mathbf{B} = B \hat{z}$ as shown. What is the direction of the torque on the loop? 1. Zero 2. +x 3. +y 4. +z 5. None of these Note: * CORRECT ANSWER: B
The torque on a magnetic dipole in a B field is: $\mathbf{\tau} = \mathbf{m} \times \mathbf{B}$ How will a small current loop line up if the B field points uniformly up the page? <img src="./images/mag_loops.png" align="center" style="width: 800px";/>
Suppose I place a small dipole $\mathbf{M}$ at various locations near the end of a large solenoid. At which point is the magnitude of the force on the dipole greatest? <img src="./images/force_on_mag_dipole.png" align="center" style="width: 600px";/> D) Not enough information to answer E) There is no net force on a dipole Recall: $\mathbf{F} = \nabla (\mathbf{m}\cdot\mathbf{B})$ Note: * CORRECT ANSWER: B
Consider a paramagnetic material placed in a uniform external magnetic field, $\mathbf{B}_{ext}$. The paramagnetic magnetizes, so that the total magnetic field just outside the material is now... 1. smaller than 2. larger than 3. the same as it was before the material was placed. Note: * Correct Answer: B
In our model of diamagnetism, the electron (charge, $-e$) travels around the "loop" in a time, $$T = \dfrac{2 \pi R}{v}.$$ What is the magnitude of magnetic dipole moment of this arrangement? 1. $evR$ 2. $\dfrac{evR}{2}$ 3. ${evR^2}$ 4. $\dfrac{evR^2}{2}$ 5. Something else? Note: * Correct Answer: B
In our model of diamagnetism, let the angular momentum associated with the orbiting electron point in the $+z$ direction. What is the direction of the magnetic moment? 1. Also $+z$ 2. $-z$ 3. It depends Note: * Correct Answer: B
