Figure 28-35 shows a metallic block, with its faces parallel to coordinate axes. The block is in auniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.020 T. One edge length of the block is 25 cm; the block is not drawn to scale. The block is moved at 3.0 m/s parallel to each axis, in turn, and the resulting potential difference Vthat appears across the block is measured. With the motion parallel to the y-axis, V= 12 mV; with the motion parallel to the z-axis, V= 18 mV; with the motion parallel to the x-axis, V= 0. What are the block lengths (a) dx, (b) dy, and (c) dz?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) The length of the block along the x-axis is dx=25cm.

b) The length of the block along the y-axis is dy=30cm.

c) The length of the block along the z-axis is dz=20cm.

Step by step solution

01

Given

The magnetic field is.B=0.020T

One edge length of the block is L=25cm.

Speed of block along x is .vx=3.0m/s

Voltage along y is Vy=12mV(10−3 V1 mV)=0.012 V.

Voltage along z is Vz=18mV(10−3 V1 mV)=0.018 V

Voltage along x is Vx=0mV

Determining the concept

Use the concept of voltage across two plates. Using the equation of voltage related to electric field and distance, find the distance.

Formulae are as follows:

E=Vd

Where E is the electric field, V is potential, and d is the distance between plates.

03

(a) Determining the length of the block  dx

Length of blockdx:

The distance along x is givendx=0.25m(100 cm1 m) .

Hence, the length of the block dx=25cm.

04

(b) Determining the length of the block  dy

Write the equation for electric field from electric force and magnetic force.

qE=qvB

E=vB

Using this value in the equation of voltage,

vB=Vd

Rearranging for d,

d=VvB

It is given that v, d, and B are mutually perpendicular to each other.

Whenvelocity is along y, then the voltage is0.012V.

dy=VyvyB

dy=0.012 V3.0 m/s×0.020 Tdy=0.20 m(100 cm1 m)dy=20 cm

Hence, the length of the block .dy=20cm

05

(c) Determining the length of the block  dz

Length of blockdz:

dz=VzvzB

dz=0.018 V3.0 m/s ×0.020 Tdz=0.30 m(100 cm1 m)dz=30 cm

Hence, the length of the block dz=30cm

Therefore, use the concept of voltage across two plates to find the distances.
