Equation 29-4 gives the magnitude Bof the magnetic field set up by a current in an infinitely long straight wire, at a point Pat perpendicular distance R from the wire. Suppose that point P is actually at perpendicular distance Rfrom the midpoint of a wire with a finite length L.Using Eq. 29-4 to calculate Bthen results in a certain percentage error. What value must the ratio LRexceed if the percentage error is to be less than 1.00%? That is, what LRgives

BfromEq.29-4-BactualBactual100%=1.00%?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The exceeded value of the ratio LRif the percentage error is to be less than1.00% is 14.1.

Step by step solution

01

Given

B∞-BB=1.00%

02

Understanding the concept

Use the formula of Biot-Savarts law and the formula of magnetic field in the given ratio of magnetic field to find the exceeded value of the ratio LRif the percentage error is to be less than1.00%

Formula:

B∞=μ0i2πRdB=μ0idl4πsinθr2

03

Calculate the exceeded value of the ratio LR if the percentage error is to be less than 1.00 %

According to Bio-Savarts law

dB=μ0idl4πsinθr2

If r makes an angleθ with l, then

r=l2+R2

And

sinθ=RR=RL22+R2

Integrating an equation of Bio-Savarts law

B=∫dB=∫μ0idL4πsinθr2B=μ0i4π∫RL22+R2dLL22+R22B=μ0i4π∫sinθdLr2B=μ0iR4π∫dlL22+R23/2

Solve further as:

B=μ0iR4π1R2lL22+R212B=μ0i2πRlL22+R21/2

Since:

B∞-BB=1%B∞-BB=0.01B∞B-1=0.01B∞B=1.01μ0i2πRμ0i2πRL2L22+R212=1.01

Solve further as:

1+4R2L2=1.0224R2L2=0.022LR=13.5=14

Therefore, the exceeded value of the ratio L/R if the percentage error is to be less than1.00% is14.1 .

Question: Figure 29-56ashows two wires, each carrying a current .Wire 1 consists of a circular arc of radius Rand two radial lengths; it carries current i1=2.0Ain the direction indicated. Wire 2 is long and straight; it carries a current i2 that can be varied; and it is at distanceR2from the center of the arc. The net magnetic fieldB→ due to the two currents is measured at the center of curvature of the arc. Figure 29-56bis a plot of the component of in the direction perpendicular to the figure as a function of current i2. The horizontal scale is set byi2s=1.00A. What is the angle subtended by the arc?

A long vertical wire carries an unknown current. Coaxial with the wire is a long, thin, cylindrical conducting surface that carries a current of30 mAupward. The cylindrical surface has a radius of3.0 mm. If the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point5.0 mmfrom the wire is1.0μ°Õ, (a) What are the size and(b) What is the direction of the current in the wire?

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.

Figure 29-49 shows two very long straight wires (in cross section) that each carry a current of4.00A directly out of the page. Distance d1=6.00m and distance d2=4.00m. What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at point P, which lies on a perpendicular bisector to the wires?

In Figure, point P is at perpendicular distance R=2.00cmfrom a very long straight wire carrying a current. The magnetic field B→set up at point Pis due to contributions from all the identical current length elements ids→along the wire. What is the distanceto the element making (a) The greatest contribution to field B→and (b) 10.0% of the greatest contribution?
