Question: A circular disk of radius R and mass M carries n point charges (q), attached at regular intervals around its rim. At time the disk lies in the xy plane, with its center at the origin, and is rotating about the z axis with angular velocity , when it is released. The disk is immersed in a (time-independent) external magnetic field role="math" localid="1653403772759" , where k is a constant.
(a) Find the position of the center if the ring, , and its angular velocity, , as functions of time. (Ignore gravity.)
(b) Describe the motion, and check that the total (kinetic) energy—translational plus rotational—is constant, confirming that the magnetic force does no work.
Consider the charging capacitor in Prob. 7.34.
(a) Find the electric and magnetic fields in the gap, as functions of the distance s from the axis and the timet. (Assume the charge is zero at ).
(b) Find the energy density and the Poynting vector S in the gap. Note especially the direction of S. Check that is satisfied.
(c) Determine the total energy in the gap, as a function of time. Calculate the total power flowing into the gap, by integrating the Poynting vector over the appropriate surface. Check that the power input is equal to the rate of increase of energy in the gap (Eq 8.9—in this case W = 0, because there is no charge in the gap). [If you’re worried about the fringing fields, do it for a volume of radius well inside the gap.]
Two concentric spherical shells carry uniformly distributed charges +Q(at radius a) and -Q (at radius ). They are immersed in a uniform magnetic field .
(a) Find the angular momentum of the fields (with respect to the center).
(b) Now the magnetic field is gradually turned off. Find the torque on each sphere, and the resulting angular momentum of the system.
Calculate the power (energy per unit time) transported down the cables of Ex. 7.13 and Prob. 7 .62,, assuming the two conductors are held at potential difference V, and carry current I (down one and back up the other).
An infinitely long cylindrical tube, of radius a, moves at constant speed v along its axis. It carries a net charge per unit length , uniformly distributed over its surface. Surrounding it, at radius b, is another cylinder, moving with the same velocity but carrying the opposite charge . Find:
(a) The energy per unit length stored in the fields.
(b) The momentum per unit length in the fields.
(c) The energy per unit time transported by the fields across a plane perpendicular to the cylinders.
