Two identical long wires of radius a=1.53mmare parallel and carry identical currents in opposite directions. Their center-to-center separation is d=4.2cm.Neglect the flux within the wires but consider the flux in the region between the wires. What is the inductance per unit length of the wires?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Inductance per unit length of the wire,Ll=1.81×10-6H/m.

Step by step solution

01

Given

  1. The radius of each long wire, a=1.53×10-3m=0.153×10-2m.
  2. Center to center separation between two wires, d=14.2cm=14.2×10-2m
  3. Unit length of wire, I=1m.

Understanding the concept

The crucial step in this problem is to find the magnetic flux due to current-carrying wires. Using the flux, we can find the inductance of the given system; by dividing inductance by unit length, we will get the required answer.

Formula:

The magnitude of the magnetic field at a radial distance from the center of the long wire (inside),

B=μ0i2π·ra2

The magnitude of the magnetic field at a radial distance r from the center of the long wire r (inside)

B=μ0i2πr

Magnetic flux,

ϕB=Li

Magnetic flux due to the field across the open surface attached to the closed loop is

ϕB=∮B→·dA→

Calculate inductance per unit length of the wire.

Let’s denote two wires asw1and w2.

Now we will find B field due to wirew1and w2at point p inside w1 at distance r from the center of w1which is calculated by using amperes law

Bin=μ0i2π·ra2+μ0i2πd-r

In the above expression, first term is due to w1 and the second term is due to w2.

Similarly, we will find B field due to wire w1and w2at point p outside, at distance r from the center of w1which is calculated by using amperes law,

Bout=μ0i2πr+μ0i2πd-r

In the above expression first term is due to w1and second term is due to w2.

Total field in the region between w1 and w2 is then,

Bin+Bout=μ0i2π·ra2+μ0i2πd-r+μ0i2πr+μ0i2πd-r

Magnetic flux due tofield B is,

ϕB=ϕB1+ϕB2=∮B→·dA→=∫0d/2B·dA+∫d/2dB·dA=∫0d/2B·dA

ϕB=2∫0aBin·dA+2∫0d/2Bout·dAϕB==2∫0aμ0i2π·ra2+μ0i2πd-r·dA+2∫ad/2μ0i2πr+μ0i2πd-r·dA

Here area element is dA=ldr using this in the above equation we get,

ϕBl=2∫0aμ0i2π·ra2+μ0i2πd-r·dr+2∫ad/2μ0i2πr+μ0i2πd-r·drϕBl=μ0iπ∫0ara2+1d-r·dr+∫0d/21r+1d-r·drϕBl=μ0iπ12-lnd-ad+lnd-aa

The first two terms represent flux inside the wire which we will neglect

ϕBl=μ0iπlnd-aaLl=ϕBil=μ0lπlnd-aaLl=ϕBil=4μ04πllnd-aa=4×10-71.0ln14.2-0.1530.153=4×10-7×ln91.81

The switch in the circuit of Fig. 30-15 has been closed on a for a very long time when it is then thrown to b. The resulting current through the inductor is indicated in Fig. 30-28 for four sets of values for the resistance R and inductance L: (1) R=R0, (2) 2R0=R, (3) R0and2L0 , (4) 2R0and2L0. Which set goes with which curve?

Figure shows a rod of length L = 10.0 cm that is forced to move at constant speed v = 5.0 m/s along horizontal rails. The rod, rails, and connecting strip at the right form a conducting loop. The rod has resistance 0.400Ω; the rest of the loop has negligible resistance. A current i = 100 Athrough the long straight wire at distance a = 10.0 mm from the loop sets up a (non-uniform) magnetic field through the loop. (a) Find the emf. (b) Find the current induced in the loop. c) At what rate is thermal energy generated in the rod? (d) What is the magnitude of the force that must be applied to the rod to make it move at constant speed?(e) At what rate does this force do work on the rod?

A wire is bent into three circular segments, each of radius r=10 cm, as shown in Figure. Each segment is a quadrant of a circle, ab lying in the xy plane, bc lying in the yz plane, and ca lying in the zx plane. (a) If a uniform magnetic fieldB→points in the positive x direction, what is the magnitude of the emf developed in the wire when B increases at the rate of 3.0 mT/s? (b) What is the direction of the current in segment bc?

A coil with an inductance of2.0 H and a resistance of 10Ωis suddenly connected to an ideal battery with ε=100V. At 0.10 safter the connection is made, (a) what is the rate at which energy is being stored in the magnetic field? (b) what is the rate at which thermal energy is appearing in the resistance? (c) what is the rate at which energy is being delivered by the battery?

In Figure, a wire forms a closed circular loop, of radius R = 2.0mand resistance4.0Ω. The circle is centered on a long straight wire; at time t = 0, the current in the long straight wire is 5.0 Arightward. Thereafter, the current changes according toi=5.0A-(2.0As2)t2. (The straight wire is insulated; so there is no electrical contact between it and the wire of the loop.) What is the magnitude of the current induced in the loop at times t > 0?
