Transcribed Image Text:**Transcription and Explanation:**
The image illustrates a simple electrical circuit with a resistor, a power source, and a magnetic field.
### Circuit Components:
1. **Power Source:**
- Voltage: 27.0 volts
2. **Resistor:**
- Resistance: 7.90 ohms
3. **Length of Wire:**
- 25.5 cm
### Magnetic Field:
- The magnetic field is represented by blue crosses (×), indicating that the field is directed into the page.
- Magnetic field strength: 84.8 milliteslas (mT)
### Explanation:
This diagram depicts a basic circuit powered by a 27.0 V battery. The circuit includes a single, 7.90-ohm resistor and a wire segment measuring 25.5 cm in length. Additionally, the circuit is under the influence of a uniform magnetic field of 84.8 mT, which is oriented perpendicularly into the plane of the diagram. This setup can be used to demonstrate principles such as electromotive force (EMF) and electromagnetic induction through experiments like moving the wire within the magnetic field and observing the resulting electrical effects.
