Four compasses are placed around a wire, as shown.The wire is then connected to a battery so that a current flows down the wire.How will the compasses point once the current is flowing?

Question illustration
A
A long wire that is vertical and standing on a steel plate. There are 4 compasses surrounding it and all of the needles are pointing in the same direction, west.
Option A
B
A long wire that is vertical and standing on a steel plate. There are 4 compasses surrounding it and all of the needles are pointing in the same direction, east.
Option B
C
A long wire that is vertical and standing on a steel plate. There are 4 compasses surrounding it and all of the needles are pointing clockwise.
Option C
D
A long wire that is vertical and standing on a steel plate. There are 4 compasses surrounding it and all of the needles are pointing counterclockwise.
Option D

A magnetically soft material is placed in a strong magnetic field.

A
It will become a permanent magnet because the domains will remain aligned.
B
It will become a temporary magnet because the domains will remain aligned.
C
It will become a permanent magnet because the domains will easily realign.
D
It will become a temporary magnet because the domains will easily realign.

How does an electric motor use magnetic force to produce motion?

A
The north pole of a permanent magnet placed in the center of an electromagnet attracts the north pole of the electromagnet.
B
The north pole of an electromagnet placed in the center of a permanent magnet attracts the north pole of the permanent magnet.
C
The north pole of a permanent magnet placed in the center of an electromagnet repels the north pole of the electromagnet.
D
The north pole of an electromagnet placed in the center of a permanent magnet repels the north pole of the permanent magnet.

Two bar magnets are labeled A and B. The ends of each magnet are numbered 1 or 2, but the poles are not labeled. When A1 is brought near B1, the bars repel.

A
A1 is the north pole of a magnet, and B1 is the south pole of a magnet.
B
A1 is the north pole of a magnet, and B1 is the north pole of a magnet.
C
A1 and B1 are opposite poles, but there is not enough information to tell which ones.
D
A1 and B1 are like poles, but there is not enough information to tell whether they are north poles or south poles.

The diagram shows two bar magnets. They are cut along the dashed line, and then the two marked ends are placed near each other.

Question illustration
A
The pieces will repel because the cut end of the top magnet is not a magnetic pole.
B
The pieces will attract because the cut end of the top magnet is not a magnetic pole.
C
The pieces will repel because the cut end of the top magnet is a south pole.
D
The pieces will attract because the cut end of the top magnet is a north pole.
