What happens when Dr. Hewitt places a current- carrying wire between the poles of the magnet for the first time?

Explanation:

there is some magnetic field in between the space between the poles of a magnet. So, when a current carrying conductor is placed in a magnetic field, it experiences a force which is given by

F = B x i x l x Sinθ

where, B is the strength of magnetic field, i is the current in the conductor, l is the length of the conductor and θ is the angle between the length vector and the magnetic filed vector.

iron would move it is magnetic there is a mag field around the current in the wire

the chart show the masses and velocities of two colliding objects that stick together after a collision.

according to the law of conservation of momentum, the momentum of the object after the collision is  

answer

1,500

kg • m/s.
