Answer:

B - spring scale and meterstick

Explanation:

The work done by the force of gravity as the object falls is equal to the potential energy of the object.

We know that the gravitational potential energy(PE) of an object is obtained by;

PE =mgΔh

Where;

m = mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity

h= height of the object

The spring scale is needed to measure the mass of the object while the meterstick measures the Δh in meters.

ANEK [815]
The directions of magnetic force and magnetic field lines are shown in the figure.

The direction to find out the magnetic field lines is given by right hand curl rule. If the thumb shows the direction of current, then the curling fingers show the direction of magnetic field lines.

The direction of force can be given by right hand thumb rule, where

Thumb - Direction of magnetic field lines
Forefinger - Magnetic force
Centre finger - Current  

Such that forefinger, centre finger and thumb must be at 90 degrees to each other.
