15. P17 - 15 PRS Question: Hall Effect

16. P17 - 16 PRS: Hall Effect A conducting slab has current to the right. A B field is applied out of the page. Due to magnetic forces on the charge carriers, the bottom of the slab is at a higher electric potential than the top of the slab. I B V > V(Top) On the basis of this experiment, the sign of the charge carriers carrying the current in the slab is: 1.Positive 2.Negative 3.Cannot be determined 4.I don’t know 0

17. P17 - 17 PRS Answer: Hall Effect Look at the force on the carriers. If positive, they are flowing to the right, and F will be down. If negative they are flowing to the left and F will be down (don’t forget the sign of q!) So either way the force is down. But we know that the result is a higher potential at the bottom – positive charges are moving down. So the carriers are positive Answer: 1. Here the charge carriers are positive I B V > V(Top)

26. P17 - 26 PRS Answer: Parallel Wires I 1 creates a field into the page at I 2. That makes a force on I 2 to the left. I 2 creates a field out of the page at I 1. That makes a force on I 1 to the right. Answer: 1. The wires are attracted I1I1 I2I2 X

81. P17 - 81 Levitate Magnet with your Fingers?

82. P17 - 82 Well… and a lifting magnet NSNS Why need diamagnetic stabilization? 1)Magnet seeks STRONG field, wants to snap up to lifter 2)Downward oscillation will move it to region where field gradient is too weak to lift it Diamagnetic sheets above, below prevent these effects, since they repel the floating magnet

83. P17 - 83 Experiment 4: Magnetic Forces on Dipoles This is a little tricky. We will lead you through with lots of PRS questions
