Two plates (as in Fig. 32-7) are being discharged by a constant current. Each plate has a radius of 4.00cm. During the discharging, at a point between the plates at radial distance 2.00cmfrom the central axis, the magnetic field has a magnitude of12.5nT . (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at radial distance6.00 ? (b) What is the current in the wires attached to the plates?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The magnitude of the magnetic field at radial distance6.00cm is 16.7nT.

Step by step solution

01

Listing the given quantities: 

Radius of plates R=0.04m

Radial distance,r1=0.02m

Radial distance, r2=0.06m

Magnetic field, B1=12.5×10−9T

02

Understanding the concepts of magnetic field:

This magnetic field increases from the center of the capacitor to a maximum value at the edges of the capacitor and then begins to decrease again as we move away from the capacitor.

Formulas:

The magnetic field inside the plates:B1=μ0id2Ï€¸é2r1

The magnetic field outside the plates:B2=μ0id2Ï€°ù2

Here, B1 and B2 are the magnetic field inside and outside the plates respectively, id is the fictitious current, R is the radius of the plate, r1 and r2 are the radial distance, and μ0 is the permeability of free space having a value of 4π×10−7N/A2.

03

(a) Calculations of the magnitude of magnetic field at radial distance  6.00 cm:

The point at the radial distance of r1is between the plates; the magnetic field at the point is given by,

B1=μ0id2Ï€¸é2r112.5×10−9T=μ0id2Ï€¸é2r1

Rearrange the above equation as below.

μ0id2π=(12.5×10−9T)×R2r1=(12.5×10−9T)×(0.04m)20.02m

μ0id2π=10−9T⋅m

….. (1)

Now the point at a radial distance ofr2is outside the plates. So the magnetic field at that point is,

B2=μ0id2Ï€°ù2=10.06m×(10−9Tâ‹…m)=16.7×10−9T=16.7nT

Hence, the magnitude of magnetic field at radial distance 6.00cm is 16.7nT.

At what rate must the potential difference between the plates of a parallel-plate capacitor with a2.0μF capacitance be changed to produce a displacement current of1.5A?

The exchange coupling mentioned in Section 32-11 as being responsible for ferromagnetism is not the mutual magnetic interaction between two elementary magnetic dipoles. To show this, (a) Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic field a distance of 10nmaway, along the dipole axis, from an atom with magnetic dipole moment 1.5×10-23J/T(cobalt), and (b) Calculate the minimum energy required to turn a second identical dipole end for end in this field. (c) By comparing the latter with the mean translational kinetic energy of 0.040eV, what can you conclude?

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?

Two wires, parallel to a z-axis and a distance 4rapart, carry equal currents i in opposite directions, as shown in Figure. A circular cylinder of radius r and length L has its axis on the z-axis, midway between the wires. Use Gauss’ law for magnetism to derive an expression for the net outward magnetic flux through the half of the cylindrical surface above the xaxis. (Hint: Find the flux through the portion of the xzplane that lies within the cylinder.)
