Two frictionless conducting rails separated by l = 55.0 cm are connected through a 2.00- resistor, and the circuit is completed by a bar that is free to slide on the rails (Fig. P32.71). A uniform magnetic field of 5.00 T directed out of the page permeates the region, a. What is the magnitude of the force Fp that must be applied so that the bar moves with a constant speed of 1.25 m/s to the right? b. What is the rate at which energy is dissipated through the 2.00- resistor in the circuit?
A magnetic field directed into the page changes with time according to B = 0.030 0t2 + 1.40, where B is in teslas and t is in seconds. The field has a circular cross section of radius R = 2.50 cm (see Fig. P23.28). When t = 3.00 s and r2 = 0.020 0 m, what are (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the electric field at point P2?
Within the green dashed circle show in Figure P30.21, the magnetic field changes with time according to the expression B = 2.00t3 4.00t2 + 0.800, where B is in teslas, t is in seconds, and R = 2.50 cm. When t = 2.00 s, calculate (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the force exerted on an electron located at point P, which is at a distance r = 5.00 cm from the center of the circular field region.

Assume the region to the right of a certain plane contains a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.00 mT and the field is zero in the region to the left of the plane as shown in Figure P22.71. An electron, originally traveling perpendicular to the boundary plane, passes into the region of the field.

(b) Assuming the maximum depth of penetration into the field is 2.00 cm, find the kinetic energy of the electron.

Two long coaxial copper tubes, each of length L, are connected to a battery of voltage V. The inner tube has inner radius o and outer radius b, and the outer tube has inner radius c and outer radius d. The tubes are then disconnected from the battery and rotated in the same direction at angular speed of radians per second about their common axis. Find the magnetic field (a) at a point inside the space enclosed by the inner tube r d. (Hint: Hunk of copper tubes as a capacitor and find the charge density based on the voltage applied, Q=VC, C=20LIn(c/b) .)
A toroid has a major radius R and a minor radius r and is tightly wound with N turns of wire on a hollow cardboard torus. Figure P31.6 shows half of this toroid, allowing us to see its cross section. If R r, the magnetic field in the region enclosed by the wire is essentially the same as the magnetic field of a solenoid that has been bent into a large circle of radius R. Modeling the field as the uniform field of a long solenoid, show that the inductance of such a toroid is approximately L=120N2r2R Figure P31.6
The conducting rod shown in the accompanying figure moves along parallel metal rails that are 25-cm apart. The system is in a uniform magnetic field of strength 0.75 T, which is directed into the page. The resistances of the rod and the rails are negligible, but the section PQ has a resistance of 0.25 . (a) What is the emf (including its sense) induced in the rod when it is moving to tire right with a speed of 5.0 m/s? (b) What force is required to keep the rod moving at this speed? (c) What is the rate at which work is done by this force? (d) What is the power dissipated in the resistor?

The homopolar generator, also called the Faraday disk, is a low-voltage, high-current electric generator. It consists of a rotating conducting disk with one stationary brush (a sliding electrical contact) at its axle and another at a point on its circumference as shown in Figure P23.21. A uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plane of the disk. Assume the field is 0.900 T, the angular speed is 3.20 103 rev/min, and the radius of the disk is 0.400 m. Find the emf generated between the brushes. When superconducting coils are used to produce a large magnetic field, a homopolar generator can have a power output of several megawatts. Such a generator is useful, for example, in purifying metals by electrolysis. If a voltage is applied to the output terminals of the generator, it runs in reverse as a homopolar motor capable of providing great torque, useful in ship propulsion.
