A circular coil of five turns and a diameter of 30.0 cm is oriented in a vertical plane with its axis perpendicular to the horizontal component of the Earths magnetic field. A horizontal compass placed at the coils center is made to deflect 45.0 from magnetic north by a current of 0.600 A in the coil. (a) What is the horizontal component of the Earths magnetic field? (b) The current in the coil is switched off. A dip needle is a magnetic compass mounted so that it can rotate in a vertical north-south plane. At this location, a dip needle makes an angle of 13.0s from the vertical. What is the total magnitude of the Earths magnetic field at this location?
Why is the following situation impossible? The magnitude of the Earths magnetic field at either pole is approximately 7.0 105 T. Suppose the field fades away to zero before its next reversal. Several scientists propose plans for artificially generating a replacement magnetic field to assist with devices that depend on the presence of the field. The plan that is selected is to lay a copper wire around the equator and supply it with a current that would generate a magnetic field of magnitude 7.00 105 T at the poles. (Ignore magnetization of any materials inside the Earth.) The plan is implemented and is highly successful.
A uniform horizontal wire with a linear mass density of 0.50 g/m carries a 2.0-A current. It is placed in a constant magnetic field with a strength of 4.0 103 T. The field is horizontal and perpendicular to the wire. As the wire moves upward starting from rest, (a) what is its acceleration and (b) how long does it take to rise 0.50 m? Neglect the magnetic field of Earth.
The cross-sectional dimensions of the copper strip shown are 2.0 cm by 2.0 mm. The strip carries a current of 100 A, and it is placed in a magnetic field of magnitude B = 1.5 T. What are the value and polarity of the Hall potential in the copper strip?
A wire carrying a 30.0-A current passes between the poles of a strong magnet that is perpendicular to its field and experiences a 2.16-N force on the 4.00 cm of wire in the field. What is the average field strength?
A particle’s path is bent when it passes through a region of non-zero magnetic field although its speed remains unchanged. This is very useful for “beam steering’’ in particle accelerators. Consider a proton of speed 4106m/s entering a region of uniform magnetic field 0.2 T over a 5-cm-wide region. Magnetic field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. By how much angle will the path of the proton be bent? (Hint: the particle comes out tangent to a circle.
Inside a motor, 30.0 A passes through a 250-turn circular loop that is 10.0 cm in radius. What i5 the magnetic field strength created at its center?
A current path shaped as shown in Figure P30.13 produces a magnetic field at P, the center of the arc. If the arc subtends an angle of = 30.0 and the radius of the arc is 0.600 in. what are the magnitude and direction of the Held produced at P if the current 3.00 A?
