Question

Indicate true or false in each of the following statements:

True False 1. A static magnetic field can do work on a current carrying wire when the current in the wire is perpendicular to the field.
True False 2. A charged particle moving parallel to a uniform B field will move on a spiral path.
True False 3. The direction of the magnetic field in a current carrying coil is parallel to the magnetic dipole moment of the coil.
True False 4. Two antiparallel currents attract each other.
True False 5. A + charge initially moving east through the earths magnetic field along the equator will fall faster than if it is moving west.

Explanation / Answer

A static magnetic field can do work on a current carrying wire when the current in the wire is perpendicular to the field. - True

A charged particle moving parallel to a uniform B field will move on a spiral path. - True

The direction of the magnetic field in a current carrying coil is parallel to the magnetic dipole moment of the coil. - False

Two antiparallel currents attract each other. - True

A + charge initially moving east through the earths magnetic field along the equator will fall faster than if it is moving west. - True
