Question: In Fig 29-76 a conductor carries6.0Aalong the closed path abcdefgharunning along 8of the 12edges of a cube of edge length 10cm. (a)Taking the path to be a combination of three square current loops (bcfgb, abgha, and cdefc), find the net magnetic moment of the path in unit-vector notation.(b) What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the xyzcoordinates of(0,5.0m,0)?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The net magnetic moment of the path in unit vector notation is 0.06Am2j^.
  2. The magnitude of the magnetic field at 0,0.5m,0is 9.6×10-11Tj^.

Step by step solution

01

Given Data

  • Current is i=0.6A
  • Length is l=10cm
02

Understanding the concept

We use the formula for the magnetic moment in terms of current and area in all three directions, and from that, we find the net magnetic moment. Then, we have to find the magnetic field from the magnetic moment.

Formula:

B→=μμ→2Ï€²â3

μ=iA


03

(a) Calculate net magnetic moment of path in unit vector notation

There is no enclosed area in x and z directions. There are only three edges with the current flowing through them for both x and z directions. Therefore, net magnetic field moment for x and z components of the patch are zero.

That means

μ→abgha=0

μ→cdefc=0

There is an enclosed area for the current flowing through y components. Therefore, the net magnetic field for y component of patch bcfgbis

role="math" localid="1662806597353" μ→bcfgb=iAj^=6.00A10×10-2m2j^=0.06Am2j^

Hence, the net magnetic moment of path in unit vector notation is (0.06Am2)j^.

04

(b) Calculate the magnitude of magnetic field at  (0, 0.5 m, 0)

The magnetic field is only in y direction, so

B→y=μμ→2Ï€²â3=4π×10-7Hm0.06Am2j^2π×5.0m3=9.6×10-11Tj^

So the magnitude of magnetic field is is (9.6×10-11T)j^.

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?

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?

In Figure, two long straight wires are perpendicular to the page and separated by distance d1=0.75cm. Wire 1 carries 6.5Ainto the page. What are (a) magnitude and (b) direction (into or out of the page) of the current in wire 2 if the net magnetic field due to the two currents is zero at point P located at distance d2=1.50cmfrom wire 2?

The current-carrying wire loop in Fig. 29-60a lies all in one plane and consists of a semicircle of radius 10.0cm, a smaller semicircle with the same center, and two radial lengths. The smaller semicircle is rotated out of that plane by angleθ, until it is perpendicular to the plane (Fig.29-60b). Figure 29-60c gives the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the center of curvature versus angleθ . The vertical scale is set byBa=10.0μTandBb=12.0μT. What is the radius of the smaller semicircle?

Question: Figure 29-72 shows an arrangement known as a Helmholtz coil. It consists of two circular coaxial coils, each of200turnsand radiusR=25.0cm, separated by a distances=R. The two coils carry equal currentsi=12.2mAin the same direction. Find the magnitude of the net magnetic field at P, midway between the coils.
