Problem 20DQ A cylinder of iron is placed so that it is free to rotate around its axis. Initially the cylinder is at rest, and a magnetic field is applied to the cylinder so that it is magnetized in a direction parallel to its axis. If the direction of the external field is suddenly reversed, the direction of magnetization will also reverse and the cylinder will begin rotating around its axis. (This is called the Einstein–de Haas effect.) Explain why the cylinder begins to rotate.

CP Two long, straight conducting wires with linear mass density \(\lambda\) are suspended from cords so that they are each horizontal,parallel to each other, and a distance \(d\) apart. The backends of the wires are connected to each other by a slack, low resistance connecting wire. A charged capacitor (capacitance \(C\)) is now added to the system; the positive plate of the capacitor (initial charge \(+Q_{0}\)) is connected to the front end of one of the wires, and the negative plate of the capacitor (initial charge \(-Q_{0}\)) is connected to the front end of the other wire (Fig. P28.87). Both of these connections are also made by slack, low-resistance wires. When the connection is made, the wires are pushed aside by the repulsive force between the wires, and each wire has an initial horizontal velocity of magnitude \(v_{0}\).
