Chapter 20, Problem 14CQ
A magneto is used to cause the spark in a spark plug in many lawn mowers today. A magneto consists of a permanent magnet mounted on a flywheel so that it spins past a fixed coil. Explain how this arrangement generates a large enough potential difference to cause the spark.

(b) Discuss practical concerns this presents, if any.arrow_forwardIntegrated Concepts (a) Show that the period of the circular orbit of a charged particle moving perpendicularly to a uniform magnetic field is T = 2(m/(qB). (b) What is the frequency f? (c) What is the angular velocity ( Note that these results are independent of the velocity and radius of the orbit and, hence, of the energy of the particle. (Figure 22.64.] Figure 22.6-4 Cyclotrons accelerate charged particles orbiting in a magnetic field by placing an AC voltage on the metal Dees, between which the particles move, so that energy is added twice each orbit. The frequency is constant, since it is independent of the particle energyThe radius of the orbit simply increases with energy until the particles approach the edge and are extracted for various experiments and applications.arrow_forward
