2. The bar magnet is released through a circular ring of copper wire as shown in the figure. a) Explain the changes in the direction of the induced current in the ring as the magnet passes through it. That is, when the magnet is on its way in and when it is on its way out of the ring. b) Will the acceleration of the falling magnet be constant? Ignore the air resistance.

Noting that the magnetic field lines of a bar magnet resemble the electric field lines of a pair of equal and opposite charges, do you expect the magnetic field to rapidly decrease in strength with distance from the magnet? Is this consistent with your experience with magnets?
What is the value of the magnetic flux through the coil in Figure 23.56 (b) due to the wire?
The magnetic field through a circular loop of radius 10.0 cm varies with time as shown in the accompanying figure. The field is perpendicular to the loop. Assuming cylindrical symmetry with respect to the central axis of the loop, plot tire induced electric field in the loop as a function of time.
Explain how electromagnetic induction can be used to detect metals? This technique is particularly important in detecting buried landmines for disposal, geophysical prospecting and at airports.
Construct Your Own Problem Consider using the torque on a current-carrying coil in a magnetic field to detect relatively small magnetic fields (less than the field of the Earth, for example). Construct a problem in which you calculate the maximum torque on a current- carrying loop in a magnetic field. Among the things to be considered are the size of the coil, the number of loops it has, the current you pass through the coil, and the size of the field you wish to detect. Discuss whether the torque produced is large enough to be effectively measured. Your instructor may also wish for you to consider the effects, if any, of the field produced by the coil on the surroundings that could affect detection of the small field.
Explain how magnetic flux can be zero when the magnetic field is not zero.
Medical devices implanted inside the body are often powered using transcutaneous energy transfer (TET), a type of wireless charging using a pair of closely spaced coils. An emf is generated around a coil inside the body by varying the current through a nearby coil outside the body, producing a changing magnetic flux. Calculate the average induced emf if each 10-turn coil has a radius of 1.50 cm and the current in the external coil varies from its maximum value of 10.0 A to zero in 6.25 106 s. (Hint: Recall from Topic 19 that the magnetic field at the center of the current-carrying external coil is B=N0I2R. Assume this magnetic field is constant and oriented perpendicular to the internal coil.)

(b) If this coil is to be used in a galvanometer that reads 50A full scale, what force constant spring must be used, if it is attached 1.00 cm from the axis of rotation and is stretched by the 60° are moved?
A person who works with large magnets sometimes places her head inside a strong field. She reports feeling dizzy as she quickly turns her head. How might this be associated with induction?
A magnetic field of magnitude 0.300 T is oriented perpendicular to the plane of a circular loop. (a) Calculate the loop radius if the magnetic flux through the loop is 2.70Wb. (b) Calculate the new magnetic flux if the loop radius is doubled.
Inductive charging is used to wirelessly charge electronic devices ranging front toothbrushes to cell phones. Suppose the base unit of an inductive charger produces a 1.00 103-T magnetic Held. Varying this magnetic Held magnitude changes the flux through a 15.0-turn circular loop in the device, creating an emf that charges its battery. Suppose the loop area is 3.00 104 m2 and the induced emf has an average magnitude of 5.00 V. Calculate the time required for the magnetic field to decrease to zero from its maximum value.
