Figure 29-32 shows four circular Amperian loops (a, b, c, d) and, in cross section, four long circular conductors (the shaded regions), all of which are concentric. Three of the conductors are hollow cylinders; the central conductor is a solid cylinder. The currents in the conductors are, from smallest radius to largest radius, 4 A out of the page, 9 A into the page, 5 A out of the page, and 3 A into the page. Rank the Amperian loops according to the magnitude of∮B→.ds→around each, greatest first.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The ranking of the Amperian loops according to the magnitude of ∮B→.ds→around each is b>a>d>c.

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 offrom the corresponding values of the magnitude of enclosed currents.

Formulae are as follows:

∮B→.ds→=μ0ienc

Where,

B→=is the magnetic field,

role="math" localid="1663001431872" ds→=is the infinitesimal segment of the integration path,

μ0=is the empty's permeability,

i=is the enclosed electric current by the path.

03

Determining the ranking of Amperian loops according to the magnitude  ∮B→.ds→.

According to Ampere’s law,

∮B→.ds→=μ0ienc

So,

∮B→.ds→=μ0ienc

From the given figure, it interprets that,

role="math" localid="1663001760102" ienc,a=4Aienc,b=5Aienc,c=0Aienc,d=3A

Hence, the ranking of Amperian loops according to the magnitude of ∮B→.ds→around each is b>a>d>c.

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

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?

A long, hollow, cylindrical conductor (with inner radius 2.0mm and outer radius 4.0mm) carries a current of 24A distributed uniformly across its cross section. A long thin wire that is coaxial with the cylinder carries a current of 24A in the opposite direction. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field (a) 1.0mm,(b) 3.0mm, and (c) 5.0mm from the central axis of the wire and cylinder?

Figure 29-79 shows a closed loop with currenti=2A. The loop consists of a half-circle of radius4m, two quarter-circles each of radius2m, and three radial straight wires. What is the magnitude of the net magnetic field at the common center of the circular sections?

Figure 29-50ashows, in cross section, two long, parallel wires carrying current and separated by distance L. The ratio i1/i2 of their currents is4.00; the directions of the currents are not indicated. Figure 29-50bshows the ycomponent Byof their net magnetic field along the xaxis to the right of wire 2. The vertical scale is set by Bys=4.0nT , and the horizontal scale is set by xs=20.0cm . (a) At what value of x0 is Bymaximum?(b) If i2=3mA, what is the value of that maximum? What is the direction (into or out of the page) of (c) i1 and (d) i2?
