1. A rod of m=0.065 kg and L = 0.45 m is at rest on a ramp of two parallel rails with angle 0 - 50° with respect to the horizontal. A uniform magnetic field B =0.85 T which points upward is applied in the region. Ignore the friction on the rails. HHHHH a. What is the direction of the current flowing through the rod if it remains at rest? (3) b. Express the magnetic force on the rod algebraically using the given variables. (5) c. What is the magnitude of the current? (4)
