Figure 29-80 shows a cross-section of a long cylindrical conductor of radius a=4 cmcontaining a long cylindrical hole of radiusb=1.50cm. The central axes of the cylinder and hole are parallel and are distanced=2cmapart; currentis uniformly distributed over the tinted area. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at the center of the hole? (b) Discuss the two special casesb=0andd=0.

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. Magnitude of magnetic field at the center of the hole is1.53×10-5T.
  2. When b=0, then we get non-zero value of the field, and when d=0we get the field zero.

Understanding the concept of Biot-Savart law

An equation known as the Biot-Savart Law describes the magnetic field produced by a steady electric current. It connects the electric current's strength, direction, length, and proximity to the magnetic field.

We use Biot-Savart law to find the magnetic field inside the wire.Since the current is uniform we use the current density formula to find the current in a solid cylinder of different radii. Using these different values of current we can find the magnetic field inside the two different regions. Adding these two fields at the required distance, we get the net magnetic field at that point.

Formulae:

B=μ0ir2πR2

J=iA

Determining the magnitude of magnetic field at the center of the hole.

Magnitude of magnetic field at the center of the hole.

The magnetic field at any point inside the wire of which the current is uniformly distributed over its cross section is given by

B=μ0ir2Ï€R2 …(¾±)

Where ris the distance from the axis of the cylinder and Ris the radius of the cylinder.

The current density is given by

J=iA

The cross-sectional area of the cylinder with the hole is

A=Ï€a2-b2

Hence, the current density with the hole is given by

J=iÏ€a2-b2 …(¾±¾±)

Now the current without the hole is given by

I1=JA=Ï€a2J

Substituting the value of Jfrom equation (ii) we get

I1=Ï€a2iÏ€a2-b2=ia2a2-b2 …(¾±¾±¾±)

This current produces the magnetic field inside the cylinder at distance r1; therefore, from equation (i)

B1=μ0I1r12Ï€a2 …(¾±±¹)

Substituting the value of (iii) in (iv) we get

B1=μ0ia2r12πa2a2-b2=μ0ir12πa2-b2

Now the current inside the cylinder that fills the hole is

I2=Ï€Jb2=ib2a2-b2 …(±¹)

This current produces the magnetic field inside a distance r2from the axis, and has magnitude

I2=Ï€Jb2=ib2a2-b2 …(±¹¾±)

Substituting the value of from (v) in (vi) we get

B2=μ0ib2r22πb2a2-b2=μ0ir22πa2-b2

At the center of the hole r2=0, hence, this field is zero at the center. Hence, the net field at the center of the hole is only B1

And the distance r1from the center of cylinder to center of hole is d

B1=μ0ir12πa2-b2B=μ0id2πa2-b2

μo=4π×10-7TmA,i=5.25A,d=2×10-2m,a=4×10-2m …(±¹¾±¾±)

b=1.50×10-2m

B=4π×10-7T.mA5.25A2×10-2m2π4×10-2m2-1.50×10-2m2=1.53×10-5T

(b) Discuss the special cases  and.

Special cases : b=0,d=0

If b=0then from equation (vii) the net field is

B=μ0id2πa2-b2

B=μ0id2πa2

This is the field due to a solid cylinder carrying a uniform current iinside the cylinder at a distance from the axis of the cylinder.

If d=0

Then B = 0

This is the field on the axis of the cylindrical shell carrying uniform current because the current enclosed in this case is zero.

An electron is shot into one end of a solenoid. As it enters the uniform magnetic field within the solenoid, its speed is 800m/s and its velocity vector makes an angle of30° with the central axis of the solenoid. The solenoid carries 4.0Aand has8000turns along its length. How many revolutions does the electron make along its helical path within the solenoid by the time it emerges from the solenoid’s opposite end? (In a real solenoid, where the field is not uniform at the two ends, the number of revolutions would be slightly less than the answer here.)

Figure 29-27 shows cross-sections of two long straight wires; the left-hand wire carries current i1 directly out of the page. If the net magnetic field due to the two currents is to be zero at point P, (a) should the direction of current i2 in the right-hand wire be directly into or out of the page, and (b) should i2 be greater than, less than, or equal to i1?

The current density J→ inside a long, solid, cylindrical wire of radius a=3.1mm is in the direction of the central axis, and its magnitude varies linearly with radial distance rfrom the axis according toJ=J0r/a, where J0=310A/m2. (a) Find the magnitude of the magnetic field at role="math" localid="1663132348934" r=0, (b) Find the magnitude of the magnetic fieldr=a/2 , and(c) Find the magnitude of the magnetic field r=a.

Question: Figure 29-56ashows two wires, each carrying a current .Wire 1 consists of a circular arc of radius Rand two radial lengths; it carries current i1=2.0Ain the direction indicated. Wire 2 is long and straight; it carries a current i2 that can be varied; and it is at distanceR2from the center of the arc. The net magnetic fieldB→ due to the two currents is measured at the center of curvature of the arc. Figure 29-56bis a plot of the component of in the direction perpendicular to the figure as a function of current i2. The horizontal scale is set byi2s=1.00A. What is the angle subtended by the arc?
