A circular loop of radius12cmcarries a current of15A. A flat coil of radius0.82cmhaving50turnsand a current of 1.3A, is concentric with the loop. The plane of the loop is perpendicular to the plane of the coil. Assume the loop’s magnetic field is uniform across the coil. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field produced by the loop at its center and (b) What is the magnitude of the torque on the coil due to the loop?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) Magnetic field produced at the center is 7.9×10−5T.

(b) Torque on coil due to loop is 1.1×10−6N⋅m.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of the given data

  • The loop radius,r=12 c³¾
  • The current, i=15‼î
  • The flat coil radius, R=0.82cm
  • The number of turns, N=50
  • The current through coil, I=1.3‼î
02

Understanding the concept:

Define the magnetic field due to the circular loop at center by using the formula in terms of current and radius. Then, you use this magnetic field to find torque using the relation between torque, magnetic field, and magnetic dipole moment.

Formulae:

The magnetic field is defined by,

B=μ0i2r

The magnetic dipole moment is,

μ=NiA

Here, μ0is the permeability of free space having a value 4π×10−7TmA,iis the current,Iis the current through coil,ris the radius, Bis the magnetic field, Nis the number of turns, and Ais the area.

03

(a) Calculate magnetic field produced at the center:

Define the magnetic field at center as follows.

B=μi2r

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

B=4π×10−7Tm/A×15A2×0.12m=7.9×10−5T

Hence, the magnetic field is role="math" localid="1663248173578" 7.9×10−5T.

04

(b) Calculate Torque on coil due to loop:

Now torque acting on coil of current Idue to the loop with magnetic field Bis as follows.

τ=NIABsinθ=N×I×π×R2×B×sin90°

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

τ=50×1.3A×3.14×(0.0082m)2×(7.9×10−5T)×1=1.1×10−6N⋅m

Hence, the torque is 1.1×10−6N⋅m.

Figure 29-67 shows a cross section across a diameter of a long cylindrical conductor of radius a=2.00cmcarrying uniform current 170A. What is the magnitude of the current’s magnetic field at radial distance (a) 0 (b) 1.00 cm, (c) 2.00 cm (wire’s surface), and (d) 4.00 cm?

Figure 29-29 gives, as a function of radial distance r, the magnitude Bof the magnetic field inside and outside four wires (a, b, c, and d), each of which carries a current that is uniformly distributed across the wire’s cross section. Overlapping portions of the plots (drawn slightly separated) are indicated by double labels. Rank the wires according to (a) radius, (b) the magnitude of the magnetic field on the surface, and (c) the value of the current, greatest first. (d) Is the magnitude of the current density in wire agreater than, less than, or equal to that in wire c?

In Fig 29-59, length a is4.7cm(short) and current iis13A. (a) What is the magnitude (into or out of the page) of the magnetic field at point P? (b) What is the direction (into or out of the page) of the magnetic field at point P?

Two semi-infinite straight sections, both tangent to the same circle, are connected by a circular arc that has a central angle θand runs along the circumference of the circle. The arc and the two straight sections all lie in the same plane. If B=0at the circle’s center, what is θ?
