In the figure, a 32 cm length of conducting wire that is free to move is held in place
between two thin conducting wires. All of the
wires are in a magnetic field. When a 6.0 A
current is in the wire, as shown in the figure,
the wire segment moves upward at a constant
velocity.
The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s?.
a) Assuming the wire slides without friction
on the two vertical conductors and has a mass
of 0.13 kg, find the magnitude of the minimum
magnetic field that is required to move the
wire.
Answer in units of T. b) What is the direction?

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow. (a) calculate the force exerted by a boxing glove on an opponent’s face, if the glove and face compress 7.50 cm during a blow in which the 7.00-kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. (b) calculate the force exerted by an identical blow in the gory old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would compress only 2.00 cm. (c) discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. does it seem high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force with no glove?
