- Scientific work is currently underway to determine whether weak oscillating magnetic fields can affect human health. For example, one study found that drivers of trains had a higher incidence of blood cancer than other railway workers, possibly due to long exposure to mechanical devices in the train engine cab. Consider a magnetic field of magnitude 1.00 10-3 T, oscillating sinusoidally at 56.5 Hz. If the diameter of a red blood cell is 6.00 µm, determine the maximum emf that can be generated around the perimeter of a cell in this field.arrow_forwardA technician wearing a circular metal band on his wrist moves his hand (from a region where the magnetic field is zero) into a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 1.6 T in a time of 0.20 s. If the diameter of the band is 5.0 cm and the field is at an angle of 45° with the plane of the metal band while the hand is in the field, find the magnitude of the average emf induced in the band.arrow_forwardA physician is using a device, with a thin circular coil of current-carrying wire of radius 1.7 mm, to stimulate neurons in a patient's brain.
