- A magnetized sewing needle has a magnetic moment of 9.70 mA m2. At its location, the Earths magnetic field is 55.0 T northward at 48.0 below the horizontal. Identify the orientations of the needle that represent (a) the minimum potential energy and (b) the maximum potential energy of the needlefield system. (c) How much work must be done on the system to move the needle from the minimum to the maximum potential energy orientation?arrow_forwardA conductor consists of a circular loop of radius K and two long, straight sections as shown in Figure P50.7. The wire lies in the plane of the paper and carries a current I. (a) What is the direction of the magnetic field at the center of the loop? (b) Find an expression for the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the loop.arrow_forwardEddy current are induced currents set up in a piece of metal when it moves through a nonuniform magnetic field. For example, consider the flat metal plate swinging at the end of a bar as a pendulum, as shown in Figure CQ20.9. (a) At position 1, the pendulum is moving from a region where there is no magnetic field into a region where the field B is directed into the paper. Show that at position 1 the direction of the eddy current is counterclockwise. (b) At position 2, the pendulum is moving out of the field into a region of zero field. Show that the direction of the eddy current is clockwise in this case. (c) Use right-hand rule number 2 to show that these eddy currents lead to a magnetic force on the plate directed at shown in the figure. Because the induced eddy current always produces a retarding force when the plate enters or leaves the field, the swinging plate quickly comes to rest. Figure CQ20.9arrow_forward
- 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.arrow_forwardA charged particle is traveling through a uniform magnetic field. Which of the following statements are true of the magnetic field? There may be more than one correct statement. (a) It exerts a force on the particle parallel to the field. (b) It exerts a force on the particle along the direction of its motion. (c) It increases the kinetic energy of the particle. (d) It exerts a force that is perpendicular to the direction of motion. (e) It does not change the magnitude of the momentum of the particle.arrow_forwardIf you cut a bar magnet into two pieces, will you end up with one magnet with an isolated north pole and another magnet with an isolated south pole?

- 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?arrow_forwardYou are working for a company that creates special magnetic environments. Your new supervisor has come from the financial side of the organization rather than the technical side. He has promised a client that the company can provide a device that will create a magnetic field inside a cylindrical chamber that is directed along the cylinder axis at all points in the chamber and increases in the axial direction as the square of the value of y, where y is the in the axial direction and y = 0 is at the bottom end of the cylinder. Prepare a calculation to show that the field requested by your supervisor and promised to a client is impossible.arrow_forward
