Understand the Problem

The question is asking how increasing the current through an electromagnet affects the forces acting on a floating globe apparatus. This involves understanding the relationship between electromagnetic force and the forces labeled X and Y in the context of the apparatus shown.

Answer

Force X increased and force Y was not affected.

The final answer is Force X increased and force Y was not affected.

Answer for screen readers

The final answer is Force X increased and force Y was not affected.

More Information

Increasing the current through an electromagnet enhances the magnetic field, strengthening the force that depends on magnetic interaction—in this case, force X. Force Y is likely unaffected as it is not influenced by the magnetic field.

Tips

A common mistake is assuming both forces are magnetically influenced. Only the force directly affected by the magnetic field is changed.
