The force on a north pole, `vec F = m vec B`, is parallel to the field `mvec B`, is parallel to the field `vet B`. Does it contradict our earlier knowledge that a magnetic field can exert forces only perpendicular to itself?

The following figure shows the magnetic field between two magnets . Which magnetic poles are there at points A and B respectively ?

An electron enters with a velocity vecv,v_(0)hati into a cubical region (faces parallel to coordinate planes) in which there are uniform electric and magnetic fields. The orbit of the electron is found to spiral down inside the cube in plane parallel to the x-y plane. Suggest a configuration of fields E and B that can lead to it.

It is desired to measure the magnitude of field between the poles of a powerful loud speaker magnet. A small flat search coil of area 2 "cm"^2 with 25 closely wound turns, is positioned normal to the field direction, and then quickly snatched out of the field region. Equivalently, one can give it a quick 90^@ turn to bring its plane parallel to the field direction). The total charge flown in the coil (measured by a ballistic galvanometer connected to coil) is 7.5 mC. The combined resistance of the coil and the galvanometer is 0.50 Omega . Estimate the field strength of magnet.
