For the next two numbers, consider four infinitely long wires that are lying in the same
plane (see the figure at the right). They overlap to form a square of sides D.
7.

Criss-cross. What is the net magnetic field at point P located at the center?
Assume that the wires are fixed on their positions.
Magnitude: (in terms of 0, , I and D, if applicable)
Direction: (use arrow, if applicable)

8.

Fifth Element. At the instant that a fifth wire carrying current I0 flowing into the page and has length L is
placed at point P, what will be net initial magnetic force that it will experience?
Magnitude: (in terms of 0, , I0, I, L and D, if applicable)
Direction: (use arrow, if applicable)

9.

Fan. The closed loop in the figure carries a current I in the counterclockwise
direction. The radii of the inner and outer arcs are R1 and R2, respectively.
What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the arcs?
Magnitude: (in terms of 0, , I, R1 and R2, if applicable)

For the next two numbers, consider the figure at the right. The Final Four opens the second round of
competition with a geeky challenge. Each one of them chooses a point charge, places them near point Q and let
this point charge move with the same speed but at any particular direction.
10. UAAP. Which among the following universities have their point charge produce a
magnetic field directed into the page at point Q?
A. Syempre, UP lang
B. UP, at sige na nga pati Ateneo
C. UP, isama mo na rin ang FEU
D. UP, at pwede na ring UE
E. Lahat maliban sa Ateneo
11. DLSU. If a positively charged green archer is placed to rest at point Q, what will be the direction of the
magnetic force that it will experience?
Direction: (use arrow, if applicable)

12. Bear Huggs. Consider a neutral conducting gummy bear moving at a constant speed away from a
conducting loop with constant current I. It experiences a magnetic force such that negative charges are
propelled towards its feet. What should be the direction of the current through the loop? Note: neutral
conductors can be polarized.
Clockwise or Counter-clockwise: ________________
