A toroid having a square cross section, 5.00cmon a side, and an inner radius of15.0cmhas500turnsand carries a current of0.800A. (It is made up of a square solenoid—instead of a round one as in Figure bent into a doughnut shape.) (a) What is the magnetic field inside the toroid at the inner radius and (b) What is the magnetic field inside the toroid at the outer radius?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The magnetic field inside the toroid at the inner radiusis5.33×10-4T

b) The magnetic field inside the toroid at the outer radius is4.00×10-4T

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities

rin=15cm=0.15m

N=500

rout=15cm+5cm=20cm=0.20m

i=0.800A

02

Understanding the concept of magnetic field and toroid

At a point inside the toroid, the magnitude Bof the magnetic field is given by equation,

B=μ0iN2π1r(i)

Nis the number of turns and r is the distance of the point from the center of the toroid.

Using that equation, we can calculate the magnetic field inside the toroid at the inner and outer radius.

03

(a) Calculations of the magnetic field inside the toroid at the inner radius

By using equation (i), we can calculate the magnetic field at the inner radius,

B=μ0iN2π1rin=1.26×10−6×0.800×5006.2810.15=5.33×10-4T

Thus, the magnetic field inside the toroid at the inner radius is 5.33×10-4T.

04

(b) Calculations of the magnetic field inside the toroid at the outer radius

Similarly, for outer radius we have,

B=μ0iN2π1rout=1.26×10−6×0.800×5006.2810.20=4.00×10-4T

The magnetic field inside the toroid at the outer radius is4.00×10-4T

In Fig. 29-4, a wire forms a semicircle of radius R=9.26cmand two (radial) straight segments each of length L=13.1cm. The wire carries current i=34.8mA. What are the(a) magnitude and(b) direction (into or out of the page) of the net magnetic field at the semicircle’s center of curvature C?

Three long wires are parallel to a zaxis, and each carries a current ofi=10Ain the positive zdirection. Their points of intersection with the xy plane form an equilateral triangle with sides of 50cm, as shown in Fig. 29-78. A fourth wire (wire b) passes through the midpoint of the base of the triangle and is parallel to the other three wires. If the net magnetic force on wire ais zero, what are the (a) size and (b) direction ( + z or- z)of the current in wireb?

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 47.25μ°Õ. 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 15.75μ°Õ, and its direction is reversed. What is the radius of the smaller semicircle.

At a certain location in the Philippines, Earth’s magnetic field of 39μ°Õis horizontal and directed due north. Suppose the net field is zero exactly8.0cmabove a long, straight, horizontal wire that carries a constant current. (a) What are the magnitude and (b) What is the direction of the current?

In Figure, a current i=10Ais set up in a long hairpin conductor formed by bending a wire into a semicircle of radiusR=5.0mm. Point bis midway between the straight sections and so distant from the semicircle that each straight section can be approximated as being an Infinite wire. (a)What are the magnitude and (b) What is the direction (into or out of the page) of B→at aand (c) What are the magnitude and (d) What is the direction B→ of at b?
