Figure 29-30 shows four circular Amperian loops (a, b, c, d) concentric with a wire whose current is directed out of the page. The current is uniform across the wire’s circular cross section (the shaded region). Rank the loops according to the magnitude of ∮B→.ds→around each, greatest first.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The ranking of the loops according to the magnitude of∮B→.ds→around each is,

.c=0>0>a

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

  • Figure showing four circular Amperian loops.
  • The current is uniform across the wire’s circular cross-section.
02

Determining the concept

Using Ampere’s law, rank theloops according to the magnitude ofaround each.

The formula is as follows:

∮B→.ds→=μ0ienc

Where, B→is the magnetic field,

ds→is the infinitesimal segment of the integration path,

μ0is the empty's permeability,
localid="1662742639512" ienc
is the enclosed electric current by the path.

03

Determining the rank of the loops according to the magnitude of  around each.

According to Ampere’s law,

∮B→.ds→=μ0ienc

From the given figure, it can interpret that,

ienc,c=ienc,d

Also,

ienc,b>ienc,a

And,

ienc,c>ienc,b

(Since the area enclosed by loop b is greater than that by loop a and the area enclosed by loop c is greater than that by b.)

Hence, the ranking of the loops according to the magnitude ofeach is,c=0>0>a

Ampere’s law gives the relation between magnetic flux and current enclosed by the loop.

At a certain location in the Philippines, Earth’s magnetic field of 39μ°Õis horizontal and directed due north. Suppose the net field is zero exactly8.0cmabove a long, straight, horizontal wire that carries a constant current. (a) What are the magnitude and (b) What is the direction of the current?

Question:In Figure, four long straight wires are perpendicular to the page, and their cross sections form a square of edge length a=20cm. The currents are out of the page in wires 1 and 4 and into the page in wires 2 and 3, and each wire carries 20 A. In unit-vector notation, what is the net magnetic field at the square’s center?

In Fig. 29-54a, wire 1 consists of a circular arc and two radial lengths; it carries currenti1=0.50Ain the direction indicated. Wire 2, shown in cross section, is long, straight, and Perpendicular to the plane of the figure. Its distance from the center of the arc is equal to the radius Rof the arc, and it carries a current i2 that can be varied. The two currents set up a net magnetic fieldB⇶Äat the center of the arc. Figure bgives the square of the field’s magnitude B2 plotted versus the square ofthe currenti22. The vertical scale is set byBs2=10.0×10-10T2what angle is subtended by the arc?

In Fig. 29-44, point P2is at perpendicular distanceR=25.1cm from one end of a straight wire of length L=13.6cmcarrying current i=0.693A.(Note that the wire is notlong.) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at P2?

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?
