We want to figure out when a current is started or stopped in a wire. So we place a small rectangular loop (0.13 by 0.15 meters) a distance 1.3 meters from the wire. If the current in the wire increases by 10 amps/second as it starts flowing, how much potential difference will be induced in the wire loop? Answer in microvolts.

An electromagnetic rail gun uses magnetic forces to launch projectiles. (Figure 1) shows a 10-cm-long, 10 g metal wire that can slide without friction along 1.0-m-long horizontal rails. The rails are connected to a 300 V source, and a 0.10 T magnetic field fills the space between the rails. Each rail has linear resistivity λ = 0.10 Ω/m, which means that the resistance is λ multiplied by the length of rail through which current flows. Assume that the sliding wire and the left end, where the voltage source is, have zero resistance. The wire is initially placed at x0 = 30 cm, then the switch is closed. What is the wire's speed as it leaves the rails?
You are part of a team working in a machine parts mechanics shop. An important customer has asked your company to provide springs with a very precise force constant k. To measure the spring constant, you fasten two of the springs between the ends of two very long wires of length L, separated by the unstretched length of the springs as shown in Figure P29.15. The specific attachment method that you use insulates the springs from the wires so that no current passes through the springs. You lay the apparatus flat on a table and then pass a current of magnitude I through the wires, in opposite directions. As a result the springs stretch by a distance d and come to equilibrium. You determine an expression for the spring constant in terms of L, I, , and d. Figure P29.15

In Figure P20.65 the rolling axle of length 1.50 m is pushed along horizontal rails at a constant speed v = 3.00 m/s. A resist or R = 0.400 is connected to the rails at points a and b, directly opposite each other. (The wheels make good electrical contact with the rails, so the axle, rails, and R form a closed-loop circuit. The only significant resistance in the circuit is R.) A uniform magnetic field B = 0.800 T is directed vertically downward. (a) Find the induced current I in the resistor. (b) What horizontal force F is required to keep the axle rolling at constant speed? (c) Which end of the resistor, a or b. is at the higher electric potential? (d) Alter the axle rolls past the resistor, does the current in R reverse direction? Explain your answer. Figure P20.65
