You are standing on the equator of the Earth, facing North, and a long, straight, horizontal wire is suspended about 2 meters in front of you at shoulder height and runs East-West. It carries a current which flows from East to West. The same positively charged particle as in the earlier question flies past you at shoulder height (exactly the same height as the wire), traveling from East to West (parallel to the wire), about 1 meter in front of you.

(a) The charged particle is moving through a magnetic field due to the current in the wire. Use Right Hand Rule #2 to determine the direction of this magnetic field. Choose from East, West, North, South, Up toward the sky, and Down toward the center of the Earth.

(b) Use Right Hand Rule #1 to determine the force on the charged particle due to the current in the wire. Choose from East, West, North, South, Up toward the sky, and Down toward the center of the Earth.

Asolid cylinder and a cylindrical shell have the same mass, same radius, and turn on frictionless, horizontal axles. the cylindrical shell has light-weight spokes connecting the shell to the axle. a rope is wrapped around each cylinder and tied to blocks of equal masses that are held the same height above the ground. both blocks are released simultaneously. the ropes do not slip. which block hits the ground first? or is it a tie?

Two kilograms of air within a piston–cylinder assembly executes a carnot power cycle with maximum and minimum temperatures of 800 k and 300 k, respectively. the heat transfer to the air during the isothermal expansion is 60 kj. at the end of the isothermal expansion the volume is 0.4 m3. assume the ideal gas model for the air. determine the thermal efficiency, the volume at the beginning of the isothermal expansion, in m3, and the work during the adiabatic expansion, in kj.
