Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

n=100/0.01m

r=2.30cm=0.023m

v=0.0460c

02

Significance of magnetic field

The area in which the force of magnetism acts around a magnetic material or a moving electric charge is known as the magnetic field.

We can find the orbital radius of the electron by equating the magnitude of magnetic force and the centripetal force. For a long solenoid, we can find the currenti by using equation29-23.

Formula:

B=μ0in

F=qvB

F=mv2r

03

(a) Determining the current i in the solenoid  

For a charged particle in equilibrium, the centripetal force must be equal to the magnetic force, i.e.

mv2r=qvB

mvr=qB

r=mvqB

This is the orbital radius of the electron.

But for solenoid, the magnetic field isB=μ0in

Substituting this in the equation for radius

r=mv±çμ0in

Rearranging this equation for current

i=mv±çμ0rn=9.1×10−31 k²µÃ—0.0460×3×108m/s1.6×10−19 C×4π×10−7 N´¡-2×0.023″¾Ã—1000.01turns/m=0.272A

The current iin the solenoid isi=0.272A

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?

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?

Figure 29-79 shows a closed loop with currenti=2A. The loop consists of a half-circle of radius4m, two quarter-circles each of radius2m, and three radial straight wires. What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the common center of the circular sections?

Figure 29-32 shows four circular Amperian loops (a, b, c, d) and, in cross section, four long circular conductors (the shaded regions), all of which are concentric. Three of the conductors are hollow cylinders; the central conductor is a solid cylinder. The currents in the conductors are, from smallest radius to largest radius, 4 A out of the page, 9 A into the page, 5 A out of the page, and 3 A into the page. Rank the Amperian loops according to the magnitude of∮B→.ds→around each, greatest first.

Figure shows a snapshot of a proton moving at velocityv→=200msj^toward a long straight wire with current i=350mA. At the instant shown, the proton’s distance from the wire is d=2.89cm. In unit-vector notation, what is the magnetic force on the proton due to the current?
