Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a situation where you have a wire at a 45-degree angle in a magnetic field, causing a weak force. Calculate the maximum potential force if the wire is rotated to 90 degrees.

💡 Hint: Refer to the basic physics equations of force in magnetic fields.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a motor using the principles of the motor effect and describe how you would ensure it operates efficiently.

💡 Hint: Think about the variables we discussed in connection with real-world motors.
