A current is set up in a wire loop consisting of a semicircle of radius4.00cm,a smaller concentric semicircle, and tworadial straight lengths, all in the same plane. Figure 29-47ashows the arrangement but is not drawn to scale. The magnitude of the magnetic field produced at the center of curvature is 47.25渭罢. The smaller semicircle is then flipped over (rotated) until the loop is again entirely in the same plane (Figure29-47 b).The magnetic field produced at the (same) center of curvature now has magnitude 15.75渭罢, and its direction is reversed. What is the radius of the smaller semicircle.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Radius of the smaller semicircle is2cm.

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the concept

Given the magnetic field at the center of the circuit in both cases, find the magnetic field due to a large circle and magnetic field due to a small circle. Find the relation between the magnetic field and radius of the circle. From this, and find the radius of the smaller circle.

Formula:

B=0I4R

02

Calculate the radius of the smaller semicircle

Let the magnetic fields produced at the center of circuit due to larger and smaller circle be BLand BSrespectively.

From figure a, we can say that,

Magnetic field produced at the center of the circuit will be the sum of the magnetic fields produced by the larger and smaller circle because the direction of the current flowing through both arcs is same. So,

Ba=BL+BS

BL+BS=47.25T 鈥︹. (1)

From figure b, we can say that,

The magnetic field produced at the center of the circuit will be the difference between the magnetic fields produced by larger and smaller circle, because the direction of current flowing through both arcs is opposite. So,

Bb=BL-BS

BS-BL=15.75T 鈥︹. (2)

Solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously.

BL=15.75Tand BS=31.5T

Consider the equation of the magnetic field as:

B=0I4R

The current flowing through both the circles is same.

So 0I4will be constant for both circles.

Consider the relation is obtained as:

B1R

Solve further as:

BLRL=BSRS

RS=BLRLBS

From the equation (1) and (2) substitute the values as:

RS=15.750.0431.5

RS=0.02mRS=2cm

Thus, the radius of the smaller semicircle is2cm.

Figure 29-34 shows three arrangements of three long straight wires carrying equal currents directly into or out of the page. (a) Rank the arrangements according to the magnitude of the net force on wire Adue to the currents in the other wires, greatest first. (b) In arrangement 3, is the angle between the net force on wire A and the dashed line equal to, less than, or more than 45掳?

In Fig. 29-44 point P1is at distance R=13.1cmon the perpendicular bisector of a straight wire of length L=18.0cm. carrying current. (Note that the wire is notlong.) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at P1due to i?

Figure 29-81 shows a wire segment of length s=3cm, centered at the origin, carrying current i=2A in the positive ydirection (as part of some complete circuit). To calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the segment at a point several meters from the origin, we can use B=04isr^r2 as the Biot鈥揝avart law. This is because r and u are essentially constant over the segment. Calculate (in unit-vector notation) at the(x,y,z)coordinates (a)localid="1663057128028" (0,0,5m)(b)localid="1663057196663" (0,6m,0)(c) localid="1663057223833" (7m,7m,0)and (d)(-3m,-4m,0)
