Textbook Question
Chapter 23, Problem 74GP
CE Predict/Explain An airplane flies level to the ground toward the north pole. (a) Is the induced emf from wing tip to wing tip when the plane is at the equator greater than, less than, or equal to the wing-tip-to-wing-tip emf when it is at the latitude of New York? (b) Choose the best explanation from among the following:
- I. The induced emf is the same because the strength of the Earth’s magnetic field is the same at the equator and at New York.
- II. The induced emf is greater at New York because the vertical component of the Earth’s magnetic field is greater there than at the equator.
- III. The induced emf is less at New York because at the equator the plane is flying parallel to the magnetic field lines.

- Integrated Concepts To construct a nonmechanical water meter, a 0.500T magnetic field is placed across the supply water pipe to a home and the Hall voltage is recorded. (a) Find the flow rate in liters per second through a 3.00-cm-diameter pipe if the Hall voltage is 60.0 mV. (b) What would the Hall voltage be for the same flow rate through a 10.0-cm-diameter pipe with the same field applied?arrow_forwardA truck is carrying a steel beam of length 15.0 in on a freeway. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide horizontally along the ground at a speed of 25.0 m/s. The velocity of the center of mass of the beam is northward while the length of the beam maintains an east-west orientation. The vertical component of the Earths magnetic field at this location has a magnitude of 35.0 T. What is the magnitude of the induced emf between the ends of the beam?arrow_forwardMedical devices implanted inside the body are often powered using transcutaneous energy transfer (TET), a type of wireless charging using a pair of closely spaced coils. An emf is generated around a coil inside the body by varying the current through a nearby coil outside the body, producing a changing magnetic flux. Calculate the average induced emf if each 10-turn coil has a radius of 1.50 cm and the current in the external coil varies from its maximum value of 10.0 A to zero in 6.25 106 s. (Hint: Recall from Topic 19 that the magnetic field at the center of the current-carrying external coil is B=N0I2R. Assume this magnetic field is constant and oriented perpendicular to the internal coil.)arrow_forward

The plane of the loop must remain perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. In which orientation should you hold the loop while you move it into the region with the magnetic field to generate the largest emf?

(c) Which assumption or premise is responsible?arrow_forwardA truck is carrying a steel beam of length 15.0 m on a free-way. An accident causes the beam to be dumped off the truck and slide horizontally along the ground at a speed of 25.0 m/s.
