The lightweight glass sphere in FIGURE Q29.1 hangs by a thread. The north pole of a bar magnet is brought near the sphere.
a. Suppose the sphere is electrically neutral. Is it attracted to, repelled by, or not affected by the magnet? Explain.
b. Answer the same question if the sphere is positively charged.
(a)
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
The effect of a bar magnet on a glass sphere placed near it.
Explanation of Solution
Given Info:
A glass sphere is hanging from a thread and North Pole of a magnet bar is brought near it.
Since magnetic materials are generally made up of iron and other metals. Moreover, this arises because of intrinsic magnetic moment present in the electrons called as electron spin; but here the material is glass and it happens to be an insulator. Hence, glass is not a magnetic material. Therefore, there is no effect of bar magnet over the glass sphere.
(b)
![Check Mark](/static/check-mark.png)
The effect of a bar magnet over a positively charged glass sphere placed near it.
Explanation of Solution
Given Info:
A positively charged glass sphere is hanging from a thread and North Pole of a magnet bar is brought near it.
There is no magnetic force between the glass sphere and bar magnet since they act on moving charges and other metals. There is a weak attraction due to polarization of charges present on the surface of glass if a magnetic bar is present.
Conclusion:
a) No, there is no attraction or repulsion between the glass sphere and the bar magnet.
b) Yes, the charges present on the glass surface are somewhat attracted to bar magnet.

- In the Donkey Kong Country video games you often get around by shooting yourself out of barrel cannons. Donkey Kong wants to launch out of one barrel and land in a different one that is a distance in x of 9.28 m away. To do so he launches himself at a velocity of 22.6 m/s at an angle of 30.0°. At what height does the 2nd barrel need to be for Donkey Kong to land in it? (measure from the height of barrel 1, aka y0=0)arrow_forwardFor which value of θ is the range of a projectile fired from ground level a maximum? 90° above the horizontal 45° above the horizontal 55° above the horizontal 30° above the horizontal 60° above the horizontalarrow_forwardA map from The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild shows that Zora's Domain is 7.55 km in a direction 25.0° north of east from Gerudo Town. The same map shows that the Korok Forest is 3.13 km in a direction 55.0° west of north from Zora's Domain. The figure below shows the location of these three places. Modeling Hyrule as flat, use this information to find the displacement from Gerudo Town to Korok Forest. What is the magnitude of the displacement? Find the angle of the displacement. Measure the angle in degrees north of east of Gerudo Town.arrow_forward
- Race car driver is cruising down the street at a constant speed of 28.9 m/s (~65 mph; he has a “lead” foot) when the traffic light in front of him turns red. a) If the driver’s reaction time is 160 ms, how far does he and his car travel down the road from the instant he sees the light change to the instant he begins to slow down? b) If the driver’s combined reaction and movement time is 750 ms, how far do he and his car travel down the road from the instant he sees the light change to the instant he slams on her brakes and car begins to slow down? c) If the driver’s average rate of acceleration is -9.5 m/s2 as he slows down, how long does it take him to come to a stop (use information about his speed of 28.9 m/s but do NOT use his reaction and movement time in this computation)?
