Field due to circular loop: A ring with a clockwise current (as seen from above the ring) is situated with its center directly above another ring, which has a counter-clockwise current, as shown in the figure. In what direction is the net magnetic force exerted on the top ring?

Compound microscope: The eyepiece of a compound microscope has a focal length of 2.50 cm and the objective has a focal length of 1.60 cm. The two lenses are separated by 15.0 cm. The microscope is used by a person with normal eyes (near point at 25 cm). What is the angular magnification of the microscope?

Force on parallel wires: The figure shows three long, parallel current-carrying wires. The magnitudes of the currents are equal and their directions are indicated in the figure. Which of the arrows drawn near the wire carrying current 1 correctly indicates the direction of the magnetic force acting on that wire?

Lenz’s law: The figure shows a bar magnet moving vertically upward toward a horizontal coil. The poles of the bar magnets are labeled X and Y. As the bar magnet approaches the coil it induces an electric current in the direction indicated on the figure (counter-clockwise as viewed from above). What are the correct polarities of the magnet?

Lenz’s law: The long straight wire in the figure carries a current I that is decreasing with time at a constant rate. The circular loops A, B, and C all lie in a plane containing the wire. The induced emf in each of the loops A, B, and C is such that
