CP A uniform bar has mass 0.0120 kg and is 30.0 cm long. It pivots without friction about an axis perpendicular to the bar at point a (Fig. P27.72). The gravitational force on the bar acts in the −y-direction. The bar is in a uniform magnetic field that is directed into the page and has magnitude B = 0.150 T.

- A wire is bent in the form of a square loop with sides of length L (Fig. P30.24). If a steady current I flows in the loop, determine the magnitude of the magnetic field at point P in the center of the square. FIGURE P30.24arrow_forwardWithin the green dashed circle show in Figure P30.21, the magnetic field changes with time according to the expression B = 2.00t3 4.00t2 + 0.800, where B is in teslas, t is in seconds, and R = 2.50 cm. When t = 2.00 s, calculate (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the force exerted on an electron located at point P, which is at a distance r = 5.00 cm from the center of the circular field region. (c) At what instant is this force equal to zero? Figure P30.21arrow_forwardA rectangular coil consists of N = 100 closely wrapped turns and has dimensions a = 0.400 m and b = 0.300 m. The coil is hinged along the y axis, and its plane makes an angle = 30.0 with the x axis (Fig. P22.25). (a) What is the magnitude of the torque exerted on the coil by a uniform magnetic field B = 0.800 T directed in the positive x direction when the current is I = 1.20 A in the direction shown? (b) What is the expected direction of rotation of the coil? Figure P22.25arrow_forward
- A metal rod of mass m slides without friction along two parallel horizontal rails, separated by a distance l and connected by a resistor R, as shown in Figure P23.15. A uniform vertical magnetic field of magnitude B is applied perpendicular to the plane of the paper. The applied force shown in the figure acts only for a moment, to give die rod a speed v. In terms of m, l, R, B, and v, find the distance the rod will then slide as it coasts to a stop.arrow_forwardA wire carrying a current I is bent into the shape of an exponential spiral, r = e, from = 0 to = 2 as suggested in Figure P29.47. To complete a loop, the ends of the spiral are connected by a straight wire along the x axis. (a) The angle between a radial line and its tangent line at any point on a curve r = f() is related to the function by tan=rdr/d Use this fact to show that = /4. (b) Find the magnetic field at the origin.

In terms of m, , R, B, and v, find the distance the rod will then slide as it coasts to a stop. Figure P30.13arrow_forward
- Two frictionless conducting rails separated by l = 55.0 cm are connected through a 2.00- resistor, and the circuit is completed by a bar that is free to slide on the rails (Fig. P32.71). A uniform magnetic field of 5.00 T directed out of the page permeates the region, a. What is the magnitude of the force Fp that must be applied so that the bar moves with a constant speed of 1.25 m/s to the right? b. What is the rate at which energy is dissipated through the 2.00- resistor in the circuit?arrow_forwardThe homopolar generator, also called the Faraday disk, is a low-voltage, high-current electric generator. It consists of a rotating conducting disk with one stationary brush (a sliding electrical contact) at its axle and another at a point on its circumference as shown in Figure P23.21. A uniform magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the plane of the disk. Assume the field is 0.900 T, the angular speed is 3.20 103 rev/min, and the radius of the disk is 0.400 m. Find the emf generated between the brushes. When superconducting coils are used to produce a large magnetic field, a homopolar generator can have a power output of several megawatts. Such a generator is useful, for example, in purifying metals by electrolysis. If a voltage is applied to the output terminals of the generator, it runs in reverse as a homopolar motor capable of providing great torque, useful in ship propulsion.arrow_forward
