- (a) A nonferrous screwdriver is being used in a 2.00 T magnetic field. What maximum emf can be induced along its 12.0 cm length when it moves at 6.00 m/s? (b) Is it likely that this emf will have any consequences or even be noticed?arrow_forward(a) What is the speed of a supersonic aircraft with a 17.0-m wingspan, if it experiences a 1.60V Hall voltage between its wing lips when in level flight over the north magnetic pole, where the Earth's field strength is 8.00105T ? (b) Explain why very little current flows as a result of this Hall voltage.arrow_forwardUnreasonable results To construct a non-mechanical water meter, a 0.500-T magnetic field is placed across the supply water pipe to a home and the Hall voltage is recorded, (a) Find the flow rate through a 3.00-cm-diameter pipe if the Hall voltage is 60.0 mV. (b) What would the Hail voltage be for the same flow rate through a 10,0-cm- diameter pipe with tire same field applied?arrow_forward
- (a) A car generator turns at 400 rpm when 1he engine is idling. Its 300-turn, 5.00 by 8.00 cm rectangular coil rotates in an adjustable magnetic field 50 that it can produce suf?cient voltage even at low rpms. What is the field strength needed to produce a 24.0 V peak emf? (b) Discuss how this required field strength compares to those available in permanent and electromagnets.arrow_forwardAn astronaut is connected to her spacecraft by a 25-m-long tether cord as she and the spacecraft orbit Earth in a circular path at a speed of 3.0 105 m/s. At one instant, the voltage measured between the ends of a wire embedded in the cord is measured to be 0.45 V. Assume the long dimension of the cord is perpendicular to the vertical component of Earths magnetic field at that instant. (a) What is the magnitude of the vertical component of Earths field at this location? (b) Does the measured voltage change as the system moves from one location to another? Explain.arrow_forwardUnreasonable Results Frustrated by the small Hall voltage obtained in blood flow measurements, a medical physicist decides to increase the applied magnetic field strength to get a 0.500V output for blood moving at 30.0 cm/s in a 1.50cmdiameter vessel. (a) What magnetic field strength is needed? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which premise is responsible?arrow_forward
- A coil of area 0.100 m2 is rotating at 60.0 rev/s with the axis of rotation perpendicular to a 0.200-T magnetic field. (a) If the coil has 1 000 turns, what is the maximum emf generated in it?

Figure 23.56 (a) The planes of the two coils are perpendicular. (b) The wire is perpendicular to the plane of the coil.arrow_forwardTranscranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a noninvasive technique used to stimulate tedious of the human brain (Figure P31.3). In TMS, a small coil is placed on the scalp and a brief burst of current in the coil produces a rapidly changing magnetic field inside the brain. The induced emf can stimulate neuronal activity. (a) One such device generates an upward magnetic Held within the brain that rises from zero to 1.50 T in 120 ms. Determine the induced emf around a horizontal circle of tissue of radius 1.60 mm. (b) What If? The field next changes to 0.500 T downward in 80.0 ms. How does the emf induced in this process compare with that in part (a)? Figure P31.3 Problems 3 and 51. The magnetic coil of a Neurostar TMS apparatus is held near the head of a patient.arrow_forward
- A heart surgeon monitors the flow rate of blood through an artery using an electromagnetic flowmeter (Fig. P28.47). Electrodes A and B make contact with the outer surface of the blood vessel, which has a diameter of 3.00 mm. (a) For a magnetic field magnitude of 0.040 0 T, an emf of 160 V appears between the electrodes. Calculate the speed of the blood. (b) Explain why electrode A has to be positive as shown. (c) Does the sign of the emf depend on whether the mobile ions in the blood are predominantly positively or negatively charged? Explain.arrow_forward(a) If the emf of a coil rotating in a magnetic field is zero at t = 0, and increases to its first peak at t = 0.100 ms, what is the angular velocity of the coil?
