2) 2014 S4 EOY P1 Q28

The diagram shows a simple d.c. motor.

Which of the following correctly identifies the connection of carbon brushes to the positive terminal of the battery and, the correct value of the torque at the instant shown in the above diagram?

3 / 5

3) A beam of electrons enters a region in which there are magnetic and electric fields.

The uniform magnetic field is directed downwards.

How should a uniform electric field be applied such that the beam of electrons passes straight through the region without deviation?

4) 2010 S4 EOY P1 Q27

In the following diagram, a compass is placed above a current-carrying wire and it is close to a magnet. The Earth's magnetic field may be ignored.

If the current flows towards the right, which of the following diagrams shows the direction of the compass needle?

5 / 5

5) A horseshoe magnet rests on a mass balance with a horizontal metal rod XY situated between the poles of the magnet. The rod is connected to a circuit as shown.

With no current in the rod, the reading on the balance is 142.0 g.

With a current of 2.0 A in the rod in the direction Y to X, the reading on the balance changes to 144.6 g.

The battery polarity is reversed and the variable resistor is adjusted so that there is a current of 3.0 A in the rod in the direction X to Y.

What is the new reading on the balance?
