In question #2, explain how the capacitor will operate in a simple series circuit that connects the battery, capacitor, and a switch in the following situations. (be sure to justify your explanations): a. Just after the circuit is closed. b. If after a significant amount of time, the switch is opened. Now, how does the capacitor behave? 4.

(A) (B) (C) (D) (E) Changing the magnitude of the magnetic field Increasing the diameter of the circle by stretching the spring Rotating the spring about a diameter Moving the spring parallel to the magnetic field Moving the spring in and out of the magnetic field JUSTIFY your answer in terms of changes in magnetic flux with text and an equation: 5. The pressure exerted on the bottom of a dam by the water in the reservoir created by the dam depends on the _____________________________. JUSTIFY your answer with text and equation: 6. As a rock sinks deeper and deeper into water of constant density, what happens to the buoyant force on it? a. It increases. b. It remains constant. c. It decreases. d. It may increase or decrease, depending on the shape of the rock. JUSTIFY your answer with text and equation: Questions 7-8: A magnetic field of 0.1 T forces a proton beam of 1.5 mA to move in a circle of radius 0.1 m. The plane of the circle is perpendicular to the magnetic field. 7. Of the following, which is the best estimate of the work done by the magnetic field on the protons during one complete orbit of the circle? (A) 0 J (B) 10-22 J (C) 10-5 J (D) 102 J (E) 1020 J JUSTIFY your answer: 8. Of the following, which is the best estimate of the speed of a proton in the beam as it moves in the circle? (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) 10-2 m/s 103 m/s 106 m/s 108 m/s 1015 m/s Write a dimensional analysis reasoning here that would allow you to ESTIMATE the correct answer WITHOUT the benefit of a calculator.

The electrical resistance of the part of the circuit shown between point X and point Y is (A) 1.3 (B) 2 (C) 2.8 (D) 4 (E) 6 Simplify the circuit. Show every step in the simplification. Then complete a VIR chart for each individual resistor and for the total circuit if X and Y were connected to a 12 V battery. 10. When there is a steady current in the circuit, the amount of charge passing a point per unit of time is (A) the same everywhere in the circuit (B) greater at point X than at point Y (C) greater in the 1 resistor than in the 2 resistor (D) greater in the 1 resistor than in the 3 resistor (E) greater in the 2 resistor than in the 3 resistor 11. One section of wire in the circuit above lies in a region containing a magnetic field B directed into the page. The magnetic force on the section of wire is directed a. Into the page b. Toward the right c. Toward the left d. Toward the top of the page e. Toward the bottom of the page JUSTIFY your answer: FOR #12 – Attach a separate sheet of unlined paper with your response. Follow my steps that have been outlined for you carefully. 12. A particle of mass m and charge q is accelerated from rest in the plane of the page through a potential difference V between two parallel plates as shown above. The particle is injected through a hole in the right-hand plate into a region of space containing a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B oriented perpendicular to the plane of the page. The particle curves in a semicircular path and strikes a detector. (a) Why must the sign of the particle’s charge be “Positive”? Justify your answer: (b) Draw a right hand. Label the pointer, fingers and thumb to explain the direction of the Magnetic Field B. (c) Explain why the particle’s path in the region of the magnetic field is semicircular. Determine each of the following in terms of m, q, V, and B. (d) The speed of the charged particle as it enters the region of the magnetic field B. REMEMBER the speed of the particle as it enters is due to whatever happened BEFORE it gets to the magnetic field!! 1. What is the F on the particle in the electric field in terms of q and V? 2. How can you find the final velocity if you know the F on the particle? 3. Write your speed in terms of m, q, and V. (e) The distance along the plate from the hole to the detector. 1. What is the shape of the path? How can this be related to the hole and detector? 2. What is the F on the particle when it is travelling in the magnetic field? 3. Relate the shape of the path to “circular motion”. What is the relevant math? 4. Now find the distance in terms or m, q, V, and B (f) By definition the work done on the particle on its trip is 0. Explain why must this be true?
