Concept explainers
A wire loop moves from a region with no magnetic field into a region with a uniform magnetic fieldpointing into the page.
The loop is shown at two instants in time,
1. Is the magnetic flux through the loop due to the external field positive, negative, or zero:
a. at
b. at
2. Is the change in flux due to the external field in the interval
3. Use Lenz’ law to determine whether the flux due to the induced current in the loop is positive, negative, or zero.
4. What is the direction of the current in the loop during this time interval?

- A uniform magnetic field B=5.44104iT passes through a closed surface with a slanted top as shown in Figure P31.59. a. Given the dimensions and orientation of the closed surface shown, what is the magnetic flux through the slanted top of the surface? b. What is the net magnetic flux through the entire closed surface?arrow_forwardA toroid has a major radius R and a minor radius r and is tightly wound with N turns of wire on a hollow cardboard torus. Figure P31.6 shows half of this toroid, allowing us to see its cross section. If R r, the magnetic field in the region enclosed by the wire is essentially the same as the magnetic field of a solenoid that has been bent into a large circle of radius R. Modeling the field as the uniform field of a long solenoid, show that the inductance of such a toroid is approximately L=120N2r2R Figure P31.6arrow_forwardTwo 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_forward

Is a current induced in the loop? Explain. FIGURE P32.1arrow_forwardA square loop with side length L, mass M, and resistance R lies in the xy plane. A magnetic field B = B0(y/L) k is present in the region of the space near the loop.

- Figure P32.21 shows a circular conducting loop with a 5.00-cm radius and a total resistance of 1.30 placed within a uniform magnetic field pointing into the page. a. What is the rate at which the magnetic field is changing if a counterclockwise current I = 4.60 102 A is induced in the loop? b. Is the induced current caused by an increase or a decrease in the magnetic field with time?arrow_forwardA 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_forwardFigure P31.13 shows a uniform magnetic field. a. Can you find a (nonzero area) loop through which the magnetic flux is zero? If so, draw the loop and the field. If not, explain why not. b. Can you find a loop through which the magnetic flux is nonzero? If so, draw the loop and the field. If not, explain why not.arrow_forward

Is the magnetic field increasing or decreasing? b. Find the magnitude of the emf induced in the loop.arrow_forward
