$A$ long straight wire carrying a current of $25 \,A$ rests on a table. Another wire $PQ$ of length $1 \,m$ and mass $2.5 \,g$ carries the same current but in the opposite direction. The wire $PQ$ is free to slide up and down. To what height $h$ will wire $PQ$ rise (in $\,mm$)? (Take $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$ and $\mu_0 = 4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \,T \cdot m/A$)

Heart-lung machines and artificial kidney machines employ blood pumps. $A$ mechanical pump can mangle blood cells. The figure represents an electromagnetic pump. The blood is confined to an electrically insulating tube, represented as a rectangle of width $\omega$ and height $h$. Two electrodes fit into the top and the bottom of the tube. The potential difference between them establishes an electric current through the blood, with current density $J$ over a section of length $L$. $A$ perpendicular magnetic field $B$ exists in the same region. The section of liquid in the magnetic field experiences a pressure increase given by:
