A scientist runs an electric current along a wire. A magnetic compass is placed near the wire. The scientist observes that whenever the current is
turned on, the compass needle moves. Why does the compass needle
move?
O The current creates an electric field around the wire
O The current creates a magnetic field around the wire
O The current adds electric charge to the compass needle
O The current increases the force of gravity on the compass needle

Four objects each with charge +2.0×10−7c are located at the corners of a square whose sides are 2.0 m long. part a what quantities can be determined using this information? check all that apply. the electric force on a charged object placed at the center of the square. the mass of each object. the total electric potential energy of the system consisting of the four charged objects. part b find the electric force on a charged object placed at the center of the square.

Review multiple-concept example 7 in this chapter as an aid in solving this problem. in a fast-pitch softball game the pitcher is impressive to watch, as she delivers a pitch by rapidly whirling her arm around so that the ball in her hand moves in a circle. in one instance, the radius of the circle is 0.626 m. at one point on this circle, the ball has an angular acceleration of 66.1 rad/s2 and an angular speed of 12.6 rad/s. (a) find the magnitude of the total acceleration (centripetal plus tangential) of the ball. (b) determine the angle of the total acceleration relative to the radial direction.
