Figure 32-27 shows a closed surface. Along the flat top face, which has a radius of 2.0 cm, a perpendicular magnetic field B⇶Äof magnitude 0.30 T is directed outward. Along the flat bottom face, a magnetic flux 0.70 mWb is directed outward. What are the (a) magnitude and (b) direction (inward or outward) of the magnetic flux through the curved part of the surface?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The magnitude of the magnetic flux through the curved surface is 1.1 mWb.

(b) The direction of magnetic flux through the curved surface is inwards because its sign is negative.

Step by step solution

01

Given

  • The radius of the top face is R = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m.
  • The magnetic field out of the top face is BTop = 0.30 T.
  • Magnetic flux directed outward through the bottom faceφbottom=0.70mWb
02

Determining the concept

Write an equation for the net magnetic flux through the given closed surface using Gauss law for magnetism. Then inserting the given values, find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic flux through the curved part.

The formula is as follows:

φb=∮B.dA

(a) Determining the magnitude of the magnetic flux through the curved surface

In the given closed surface, apply Gauss law, i.e.,

Net magnetic flux through any closed surface is zero.

φb=∮B.dA=0φb=φtop+φbottom+φcurvedsurface=0...............1

It is known,φbottom=0.70mWb=0.70×10-3Wb

φtop=∮B.dA=BtopÏ€°ù2φtop=0.30×3.14×0.022φtop=0.0003768Wbφtop=0.37×10-3Wb

Using equation (1),

0.37×10-3+0.70×10-3+φφcurvedsurface=01.07×10-3+φφcurvedsurface=0φφcurvedsurface=-1.07×10-3φφcurvedsurface=1.1mWbφφcurvedsurface=1.1mWb

Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic flux through the curved surface is 1.1 mWb .

04

(b) Determining the direction of magnetic flux through the curved surface

The direction of magnetic flux through the curved surface is inwards because its sign is negative.
