Hey there!
I have some questions
I'm confused with the first one, because I thought apparent weight = mg + ma. Would this be a correct explanation?
If we're moving in the same direction as the gravitational field, there is no net force acting on the body since it's not doing work against the field to move upwards?
It seems that i've just tried to join 3 different concepts in that explanation and I don't really understand..
And for Q19, I thought it was d?
So for the first one, go back to intuition. I'm assuming the answer is B? If that's right, it is because when you move the bag downwards, in that motion you could consider it sort of 'weightless,' like in free-fall. Moving it upwards quickly, you'd feel the bag pull back down on you - The apparent weight has
increased. Moving it downwards, the apparent weight has decreased... I think?
For Q19, you can't explain the levitation with eddy currents because the magnet was resting on the superconductor to begin with. Therefore, no change in flux, therefore, no induced emf, therefore, no eddy currents. So every explanation with eddy currents is immediately incorrect (and a good time to remind,
the Meisner Effect cannot be fully explained using eddy currents.
That leaves C - You are looking for the words 'exclusion' or 'repulsion' of the magnetic field, because this is what characterises the Meisner Effect (and the word diamagnetic is another one)
I wasn't able to attach any more photos so sorry for spamming!
I thought the answer for Q16 was B? Especially because of the way the coils are orientated?
The current carrying coils act as electromagnet that induce a field going up and down the page (consider each end of the coil as a north/south pole). Use your right hand grip rule and you'll see the induced force on the moving electron due to the magnetic field is actually horizontal
