Chapter 28, Problem 48AP

Review. (a) Show that a magnetic dipole in a uniform magnetic field, displaced from its equilibrium orientation and released, can oscillate as a torsional pendulum (Section 15.5) in simple harmonic motion. (b) Is this statement true for all angular displacements, for all displacements less than 180°, or only for small angular displacements? Explain. (c) Assume the dipole is a compass needle—a light bar magnet—with a magnetic moment of magnitude μ. It has moment of inertia I about its center, where it is mounted on a frictionless, vertical axle, and it is placed in a horizontal magnetic field of magnitude B. Determine its frequency of oscillation. (d) Explain how the compass needle can be conveniently used as an indicator of the magnitude of the external magnetic field. (e) If its frequency is 0.680 Hz in the Earth’s local field, with a horizontal component of 39.2 μT, what is the magnitude of a field parallel to the needle in which its frequency of oscillation is 4.90 Hz?

A 150-kg electromagnet is at rest and is holding 100 kg of scrap steel when the current is turned off and the steel is dropped. Knowing that the cable and the supporting crane have a total stiffness equivalent to a spring of constant 200 kN/m, determine (a) the frequency, the amplitude, and the maximum velocity of the resulting motion, (b) the minimum tension that will occur in the cable during the motion, (c) the velocity of the magnet 0.03 s after the current is turned off.
If the loop is in a uniform magnetic field with magnitude B = 0.48 T in the +x direction, find the magnitude of the torque exerted on the loop as well as the loops direction of rotation (counter/clockwise about x/y/z axis).
A metal wire of mass m = 0.400 kg slides without friction on two horizontal rails spaced a distance d = 0.38 m apart, as in the figure. The track lies in a vertical uniform magnetic field B= 1.20 T. There is a constant current i = 0.40 A through generator G, along one rail, across the wire, and back down the other rail. Find the speed and direction of the wire's motion as a function of time, assuming it to be stationary at t = 0. Evaluate for t = 0.3 s. Take positive to the right and negative to the left.
