- In Section 7.7, we defined conservative and nonconservative forces. In Chapter 23, we stated that an electric charge creates an electric field that produces a conservative force. Argue now that induction creates an electric field that produces a nonconservative force.arrow_forwardA cyclometer is a device mounted on a bicycle that records and displays trip information such as elapsed time, distance traveled, and average speed. Modern versions employ small magnets attached to a spoke on either the front or rear wheel and a sensor located on the front fork or rear frame. As the magnet is carried past the detector once each wheel revolution, it produces an electrical pulse that is recorded and logged by an integrated circuit in the device. The distance traveled equals the total number of revolutions multiplied by the circumference of the wheel. (a) A typical mountain bike has a wheel diameter of 26 in. How far will a cyclist have traveled in both miles and kilometers if her cyclometer indicates that her front wheel has made 25,000 revolutions during her trip? (b) If the cyclometer clock shows that the elapsed time for the trip was 2 hours and 40 minutes, what was the rider’s average speed during this period?arrow_forwardIntegrated Concepts (a) What is the direction of the force on a wire carrying a current due east in a location where the Earth’s field is due north? Both are parallel to the ground. (b) Calculate the force per meter if the wire carries 20.0 A and the field strength is 3.00105T. (c) What diameter copper wire would have its weight supported by this force? (d) Calculate the resistance per meter and the voltage per meter needed.arrow_forward

(b) Discuss practical concerns this presents, if any.arrow_forwardUnreasonable results An inventor wants to generate 120-V power by moving a 1.00-m-long wire perpendicular to Earth’s 5.00105T field. (a) Find the speed with which the wire must move. (b) What Is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which assumption is responsible?arrow_forward

(b) Considering the high-power output, why doesn’t the defibrillator produce serious burns?arrow_forwardExplain how electromagnetic induction can be used to detect metals? This technique is particularly important in detecting buried landmines for disposal, geophysical prospecting and at airports.arrow_forwardIntegrated Concepts Cold vaporizers pass a current through water, evaporating it with only a small increase in temperature. One such home device is rated at 3.50 A and utilizes 120 V AC with 95.0% efficiency. (a) What is the vaporization rate in grams per minute?
