A student makes a short electromagnet by winding of wire 300turnsaround a wooden cylinder of diameterd=5.0cm. The coil is connected to a battery producing a current of4.0Ain the wire. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of this device? (b) At what axial distance d will the magnetic field have the magnitude5.0μ°Õ(approximately one-tenth that of Earth’s magnetic field)?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment is 2.4Aâ‹…m2.

(b) The magnetic field have the magnitude 5.0μ°Õat axial distance dis 0.46m.

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities:

A diameter,d=5.0cm=0.05m

Number of turns,N=300

The current,i=4A

The magnetic field,role="math" localid="1663234250596" B=5μ°Õ=5×10-6T

Understanding the concept of magnetic field and dipole moment:

The magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment can be defined as the product of number of turns, current in that loop, and the area of that loop. You can calculate the magnetic field on the axis of a magnetic dipole, a distanceZby using the following equation.

The magnetic dipole moment is,

μ=NiA

Here, Nis the number of turns, iis the current, Ais the area.

The magnetic field is,

role="math" localid="1663233700545" B=μ0NiR22R2+Z232

Here, μ0is the permeability of free space having a value 4π×10-7NA2, Ris the radius, Zand is the distance.

03

(a) Calculations of the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment:

By using the formula of magnetic dipole moment,

μ=NiA ..... (1)

Calculate the area of the circular loop:

A=πR2=πd22=3.14×0.0522=1.96×10-3m2

By substituting this value into equation (1).

μ=300×4A×1.96×10−3m2=2.356A⋅m2≈2.4A⋅m2

Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment is2.4Aâ‹…m2.

(b) Calculations of the magnetic field have the magnitude 5.0 μT at axial distance d:

The magnetic field of the coil is given bytheequation.

B=μ0NiR22R2+Z232 ….. (2)

But here, Z≫dthat means z≫R.

Thus, equation (2) can be written as

role="math" localid="1663233718305" B=μ0NiR22Z3

By multiplying and dividing by π,you can get

role="math" localid="1663233733788" B=μ0NiπR22πZ3

Substitute NiAfor μin the above equation.

B=μ0μ2πZ3

By solving for Z, you can get

Z3=μ0μ2πB

role="math" localid="1663234263421" Z=μ0μ2πB13=4π×10-7×2.362π×5×10-613=(0.0944)13=0.46m

Hence, the magnetic field have the magnitude 5.0μ°Õat axial distance is 0.46m.

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?

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 a particular region there is a uniform current density of 15A/m2in the positive z direction. What is the value of ∫B.dswhen that line integral is calculated along the three straight-line segments from (x, y, z) coordinates (4d, 0, 0) to (4d, 3d, 0) to (0, 0, 0) to (4d, 0, 0), where d=20cm?

Figure 29-25 represents a snapshot of the velocity vectors of four electrons near a wire carrying current i. The four velocities have the same magnitude; velocity is directed into the page. Electrons 1 and 2 are at the same distance from the wire, as are electrons 3 and 4. Rank the electrons according to the magnitudes of the magnetic forces on them due to current i, greatest first.

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.
