A long, hollow, cylindrical conductor (with inner radius 2.0mm and outer radius 4.0mm) carries a current of 24A distributed uniformly across its cross section. A long thin wire that is coaxial with the cylinder carries a current of 24A in the opposite direction. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field (a) 1.0mm,(b) 3.0mm, and (c) 5.0mm from the central axis of the wire and cylinder?

Step by step solution

01

Given

  • Current flowing through hollow cylinder l=24A
  • Current flowing through long thin wire placed coaxial with hollow cylinder i=24Aopposite to the direction of l
  • Inner radius of cylinder ri=2mm
  • Outer radius of cylinder ro=4mm

Understanding the concept

We can find the magnitude of magnetic field by using Ampere’s law separately for a long thin wire and hollow cylinder. As the direction of currents is opposite, we can add both fields by considering the direction of the fields produced by them.

Formula:

∮B→·ds→=μ0Ienclosed

03

(a) Calculate the net magnetic field at a point p and distance r from the center of the hollow cylinder r=1.0mm

Consider Bc andBw as the magnitude of magnetic field at distancerfrom the center due to the cylinder and thin wire then

At

∮B→w·ds→=μ0Ienclosed=μ0iBw·2πr=μ0i

This gives

Bw=μ0i2πr

and

∮B→câ‹…ds→=μ0Ienclosed=μ0I=0.0B=Bc+Bw=μ0i2Ï€r=1.26×10−6×242×π×1.0×10−3B=4.8×10−3â€Í¿

Hence,B=4.8×10−3â€Í¿

04

(b) Calculate the net magnetic field at a point  p and distance r from the center of the hollow cylinder r=3.0mm

Atr=3.0×10−3″¾=3.0 mm

∮B→w·ds→=μ0Ienclosed=μ0i

This gives,

Bw=μ0i2πr

And

∮B→c·ds→=μ0Ienclosed=μ0Ienclosed

Now,

Ienclosed=I·πr2-πri2πr02-πri2

Hence,

Bc=μ02πr⋅I⋅(πr2−πri2πr02−πri2)

Since i = - I

B=2μ0i4πr⋅(r02−r2)(r02−ri2)=(2×10−7×24×(42−32))3.0×10−3×(42−22)B=9.3×10−4T

Hence,

B=9.3×10−4 T

05

(c) Calculate the net magnetic field at a point  p and distance r from the center of the hollow cylinder r=5.0mm

At r=5.0×10−3″¾=5.0″¾m

Ienclosed=i-i=0in the ampere loop is zero

HenceB=Bc+Bw=0.0T

Hence, B=0.0T

Figure a shows, in cross section, three current-carrying wires that are long, straight, and parallel to one another. Wires 1 and 2 are fixed in place on an xaxis, with separation d. Wire 1 has a current of0.750A, but the direction of the current is not given. Wire 3, with a current of0.250Aout of the page, can be moved along the xaxis to the right of wire 2. As wire 3 is moved, the magnitude of the net magnetic forceF→2on wire 2 due to the currents in wires 1 and 3 changes. The xcomponent of that force is F2xand the value per unit length of wire 2 isF2x/L2. Figure bgivesF2x/L2versus the position xof wire 3. The plot has an asymptoteF2xL2=-0.627μN/masx→∞.The horizontal scale is set byxs=12.0cm. (a) What are the size of the current in wire 2 and (b) What is the direction (into or out of the page) of the current in wire 2?

Question: Figure 29-31 shows four arrangements in which long, parallel, equally spaced wires carry equal currents directly into or out of the page. Rank the arrangements according to the magnitude of the net force on the central wire due to the currents in the other wires, greatest first.

The current density J→ inside a long, solid, cylindrical wire of radius a=3.1mm is in the direction of the central axis, and its magnitude varies linearly with radial distance rfrom the axis according toJ=J0r/a, where J0=310A/m2. (a) Find the magnitude of the magnetic field at role="math" localid="1663132348934" r=0, (b) Find the magnitude of the magnetic fieldr=a/2 , and(c) Find the magnitude of the magnetic field r=a.

Fig. 29-63 shows wire 1 in cross section; the wire is long and straight, carries a current of4.00mAout of the page, and is at distance d1=2.40cmfrom a surface. Wire 2, which is parallel to wire 1 and also long, is at horizontal distanced2=5.00cmfrom wire 1 and carries a current of6.80mAinto the page. What is the x component of the magnetic force per unit length on wire 2 due to wire 1?

Figure 29-45 shows two current segments. The lower segment carries a current of i1=0.40Aand includes a semicircular arc with radius 5.0cm, angle 180°, and center point P. The upper segment carries current i2=2i1and includes a circular arc with radius 4.0cm, angle 120°, and the same center point P. What are the(a) magnitude and (b) direction of the net magnetic field at Pfor the indicated current directions? What are the (c)magnitude of if i1 is reversed and (d) direction B→ of if i1 is reversed?
