A conducting bar of length l and mass m rests at the left end of the two
Question:
a. In which direction, into or out of the page, will a current through the conducting bar cause the bar to experience a force to the right?
b. Find an expression for the bars speed as it leaves the rails at the right end.

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
