C) The brightness will decrease momentarily then return to its previous level. D) The brightness remains the same as before the switch is closed. E) The brightness decreases permanently. Answer: B 2) A resistor and a capacitor are connected in series across an ideal battery having a constant voltage across its terminals. At the moment contact is made with the battery (a) the voltage across the capacitor is A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. B) less than the battery's terminal voltage, but greater than zero. C) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. D) zero. (b) the voltage across the resistor is A) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. B) less than the battery's terminal voltage, but greater than zero. C) equal to the battery's terminal voltage. D) zero. Answer: (a) D (b) C 3) Three particles travel through a region of space where the magnetic field is out of the page, as shown in the figure. The electric charge of each of the three particles is, respectively, A) 1 is neutral, 2 is negative, and 3 is positive. B) 1 is neutral, 2 is positive, and 3 is negative. C) 1 is positive, 2 is neutral, and 3 is negative. D) 1 is positive, 2 is negative, and 3 is neutral. E) 1 is negative, 2 is neutral, and 3 is positive. Answer: E 4) Ions having equal charges but masses of M and 2M are accelerated through the same potential difference and then enter a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to their path.

A) 4R B) 3R C) 2 R D) R/ 2 E) R/2 Answer: D 5) The figure shows four different sets of insulated wires that cross each other at right angles without actually making electrical contact.

Answer: C 6) Consider a solenoid of length L, N windings, and radius b (L is much longer than b). A current I is flowing through the wire. If the radius of the solenoid were doubled (becoming 2b), and all other quantities remained the same, the magnetic field inside the solenoid would A) remain the same. B) become twice as strong. C) become one half as strong. Answer: A 7) In the figure, two solenoids are approaching each other with speed v as shown. The induced current through the resistor R is A) from a to b. B) from b to a.
