- (a) A 200-turn circular loop of radius SO.0 cm is vertical, with its axis on an east-west line. A current of 100 A circulates clockwise in the loop when viewed from the east. Earth’s field here is due north, parallel to the ground, with a strength of 3.0105T. What are the direction and magnitude of the torque on the loop? (b) Does this device have any practical applications as a motor?arrow_forwardFrustrated by the small Hall voltage obtained in blood flow measurements, a medical physicist decides to increase the applied magnetic field strength to get a 0.500-V output for blood moving at 30.0 cm/s in a 1.50-cm-diameter vessel. (a) What magnetic field strength is needed? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which premise is responsible?arrow_forwardAmpère’s Law The French physicist André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836) discovered that an electrical current I in a wire produces a magnetic field B. A special case of Ampère’s Law relates the current to the magnetic field through the equation ∮C B ⋅ dr = μI, where C is any closed curve through which the wire passes and μ is a physical constant. Assume the current I isgiven in terms of the current density J as I = ∫∫S J ⋅ n dS, where Sis an oriented surface with C as a boundary. Use Stokes’ Theoremto show that an equivalent form of Ampère’s Law is ∇ x B = μJ.arrow_forward
- A conducting rod of length ℓ moves on two horizontal, frictionless rails as shown inFigure P31.26. If a constant force of 1.00 N moves the bar at 2.00 m/s through amagnetic field B that is directed into the page (a) what is the current through the 8.00-Ω resistor R?

Point b is midway between the straight sections and so distant from the semicircle that each straight section can be approximated as being an infinite wire. (a) What is the magnitude of B (vector) at a? ___________T(b) What is the direction of B (vector) at a? 1) into the page 2) out of the page (c) What is the magnitude of B (vector) at b? ____________T(d) What is the direction of B (vector) at b? 1) into the page 2) out of the page (please show units. It really helps me out)arrow_forwarda) Find a symbolic expression for the ratio of the angular frequency of an electron to the angular frequency of a proton in the same magnetic field (find ωe/ωp). b) Find numerical value of the ratio of the angular frequency of an electron to the angular frequency of a proton in the same magnetic field (find ωe/ωp).arrow_forward
- (a) A 200-turn circular loop of radius 50.0 cm is vertical, with its axis on an east-west line. A current of 100 A circulates clockwise in the loop when viewed from the east. Earth’s field here is due north, parallel to the ground,with a strength of 3.0 × 10−5 T. What are the direction and magnitude of the torque on the loop? (b) Does this device have any practical applications as a motor?arrow_forwardA conducting rectangular loop ofmass M, resistance R , and dimensions w by l falls from rest into a magneticfield B→, as shown in Figure P20.67. Duringthe time interval before the topedge of the loop reaches the field, theloop approaches a terminal speed v T.(a) Show that vT = MgR/B2w2 (b) Why is vT proportional to R ?(c) Why is it inversely proportional to B2?arrow_forwardAn investigator has made a solenoid by wrapping 100 turns of wire on a tube that is 10 cm long and 2 cm in diameter. The power supply is providing as much current as it can, but a stronger field is needed, so the solenoid must be rewrapped. Which of the following will result in a stronger field?A. Wrapping 100 turns of wire on a tube that is 20 cm long and 2 cm in diameter.B. Wrapping 100 turns of wire on a tube that is 10 cm long and 1 cm in diameter.C.
