Textbook Question
Chapter 20, Problem 10P
* A metal rod is connected to a battery through two stiff metal wires that hold the rod horizontally The rod is between the poles of a horseshoe magnet that is sitting on a mass-measuring platform scale, which reads 100 g. Draw the magnetic poles of the magnet and the battery connected to the metal rod so that when you turn the current in the circuit on (a) the reading of the scale supporting the magnet increases; (b) the reading decreases.
