One end of a bar magnet is brought close to the end of a metal bar. This metal bar might be attracted, be repelled, or experience no magnetic force. In which of these three cases can you determine that the second metal bar is also a magnet? In which cases can you determine that the second bar is definitely not a magnet? Explain your reasoning.

The circuit shown in the drawing is used to make a magnetic balance to weigh objects. The mass m to be measured is hung from the centre of a bar, which is in a uniform magnetic field of 1.50 T directed into the page. The battery voltage can be adjusted to vary the current in the circuit. The horizontal bar is 60.0 cm long and is made of extremely lightweight material, so its mass can be neglected. It is connected to the battery by thin vertical wires that can support no appreciable tension; that is, all the weight of the mass m is supported by the magnetic force on the bar. A 5.00-ohm resistor is in series with the bar, and the resistance of the rest of the circuit is negligibly small. Which point, a or b, should be the positive terminal of the battery?

A car is stuck in the mud. A tow truck pulls on the car with the arrangement shown in Figure P5.42. The tow cable is under a tension of 2500 N and pulls downward and to the left on the pin at its upper end. The light pin is held in equilibrium by force exerted by the two bars A and B. Each bar is a strut; that is, each is a bar whose weight is small compared to the forces it exerts and which exerts forces only through hinge pins at its ends. Each strut exerts a force directed parallel to its length. Determine the force of tension or compression in each strut. Proceed as follows. Make a guess as to which wat (pushing or pulling) each force acts on the top pi. Draw a free-body diagram of the pin. Use the condition for equilibrium of the pin to translate the free-body diagram into equations. From the equations calculate the forces exerted by struts A and B. If you obtain a positive answer, you correctly guessed the direction of the force. A negative answer means that the direction should be reversed, but the absolute value gives the magnitude of the force. If a strut pulls on a pin, it is intension. If it pushes, the strut is in compression. Identify whether each strut is in tension or in compression.

A car is stuck in the mud. A tow truck pulls on the car with the arrangement shown in Figure P5.24. The tow cable is under a tension of 2 500 N and pulls downward and to the left on the pin at its upper end. The light pin is held in equilibrium by forces exerted by the two bars A and B. Each bar is a strut; that is, each is a bar whose weight is small compared to the forces it exerts and which exerts forces only through hinge pins at its ends. Each strut exerts a force directed parallel to its length. Determine the force of tension or compression in each strut. Proceed as follows. Make a guess as to which way (pushing or pulling) each force acts on the top pin. Draw a free-body diagram of the pin. Use the condition for the equilibrium of the pin to translate the free-body diagram into equations. From the equations calculate the forces exerted by struts A and B. If you obtain a positive answer, you correctly guessed the direction of the force. A negative answer means that the direction should be reversed, but the absolute value correctly gives the magnitude of the force. If a strut pulls on a pin. it is in tension. If it pushes, the strut is in compression. Identify whether each strut is in tension or in compression.
