A wire of length 25.0cm carrying a current of 4.51mAis to be formed into a circular coil and placed in a uniform magnetic fieldof magnitude 5.71mT. If the torque on the coil from the field is maximized. What are (a) the angle between and the coil’s magnetic dipole moment? (b) the number of turns in the coil? (c) What is the magnitude of that maximum torque?
A circular loop of wire having a radius of 8.0cm carries a current of 0.20A. A vector of unit length and parallel to the dipole momentof the loop is given by . (This unit vector gives the orientation of the magnetic dipole moment vector.) If the loop is located in a uniform magnetic field given by(a)Find the torque on the loop (in unit vector notation)(b)Find the orientation energy of the loop.
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?
