The net force on a current loop in a uniform magnetic field is zero. But what if B?  is not uniform? The figure (Figure 1) shows a square loop of wire that lies in the xy-plane. The loop has corners at (0,0),(0,L),(L,0), and (L,L) and carries a constant current I in the clockwise direction. The magnetic field has no x-component but has both y- and z-components: B? =(B0z/L)j^+(B0y/L)k^, where B0 is a positive constant. Part G Find the magnitude of the...

1. A city official claims that the proportion of all commuters who are in favor of an expanded public transportation system is 50%. A newspaper conducts a survey to determine whether this proportion is different from 50%. Out of 225 randomly chosen commuters, the survey finds that 90 of them reply yes when asked if they support an expanded public transportation system. Test the official’s claim at α = 0.05. 2. A survey of 225 randomly chosen commuters are asked...
