Chapter 28, Problem 17P
(II) A compass needle points 28° E of N outdoors. However, when it is placed 12.0 cm to the east of a vertical wire inside a building, it points 55° E of N. What is the magnitude and direction of the current in the wire? The Earth’s field there is 0.50 × 10−4 T and is horizontal.

You are working with a team that is designing a new roller coaster-type amusement park ride for a major theme park. You are present for the testing of the ride, in which an empty 150 kg car is sent along the entire ride. Near the end of the ride, the car is at near rest at the top of a 100 m
tall track. It then enters a final section, rolling down an undulating hill to ground level. The total length of track for this final section from the top to the ground is 250 m. For the first 230 m, a constant friction force of 370 N acts from computer-controlled brakes. For the last 20 m, which is
horizontal at ground level, the computer increases the friction force to a value required for the speed to be reduced to zero just as the car arrives at the point on the track at which the passengers exit.
(a) Determine the required constant friction force (in N) for the last 20 m for the empty test car.
