A stiff, straight, horizontal wire of length 25 cm and mass 20 g is supported by electrical contacts at its ends, but is otherwise free to move vertically upward. The wire is in a uniform, horizontal magnetic field of magnitude 0.4 T perpendicular to the wire. A switch connecting the wire to a battery is closed and the wire is shot upward, rising to a maximum height h. The battery delivers a total charge of 2 C during the short time it makes contact with the wire. Find the height h.
