A long solenoid of radius a, carrying n turns per unit length, is looped by a wire with resistance R, as shown in Fig. 7.28.

(a) If the current in the solenoid is increasing at a constant rate (dl/dt=k),, what current flows in the loop, and which way (left or right) does it pass through the resistor?

(b) If the currentlin the solenoid is constant but the solenoid is pulled out of the loop (toward the left, to a place far from the loop), what total charge passes through the resistor?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The magnitude of the current in the loop is πμona2kRand direction is counter clockwise.

(b) The charge passing through the resistor is2μ0n/Ï€²¹2R.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

The radius of the solenoid is a.

The number of the turns per unit length is n.

The resistance of the wire is R.

The current in the solenoid is increasing at a constant rate,k=dldt

02

Calculate the current in the solenoid and its direction.

(a)

The magnetic field inside the solenoid is given by,

B=μ0nl

Herelis the current in the solenoid andμ0is the magnetic permeability.

The area of the solenoid is given by,

A=Ï€²¹2

The magnetic flux inside the solenoid is given by,

Ï•=B.A

Substitute Ï€²¹2for A andμ0nlfor B into above equation.

Ï•=μ0nl.Ï€²¹2Ï•=πμ0nla

The induced emf into the solenoid is given by,

ε=-»åÏ•dt

Substitute πμ0n/a2for ϕinto above equation.

localid="1657610039816" ε=-ddtπμ0n/a2ε=-πμ0na2dldt

Substitutedldtfor K into above equation.

ε=-πμ0na2k

The current in the loop is given by the ohm’s law as,

l=εR

Substitute -πμ0na2kfor εinto above equation.

l=-πμ0na2kR

Hence the magnitude of the current in the loop isπμ0na2kR.

The direction of the magnetic field of solenoid in toward the right. Therefore, the direction of the magnetic field of the loop should be in the opposite direction of the solenoid magnetic field.

Therefore, the direction of the current is in toward the left or counter clockwise.

03

Determine the total charge passing through the resistor.

(b)

When solenoid is pulled out, the magnitude of the flux remains the same but the direction becomes the opposite. Therefore, change in the flux,

∆ϕ=2μ0nlÏ€²¹2

The current in term of charge is given by,

l=dQdt …… (1)

The current in terms of resistance and voltage is given by,

l=εR …… (2)

Equate equation (1) and (2).

dQdt=εR

Substitute-dϕdtfor into above equation.

dQdt=-1Rdϕdt∆Q=-∆ϕR

The magnitude of the charge,

∆Q=∆ϕR

Substitute2μ0nlÏ€²¹2 forlocalid="1657611561575" ∆ϕinto above equation.

∆Q=2μ0nlÏ€²¹2R

Hence the charge passing through the resistor is2μ0nlÏ€²¹2R

Try to compute the self-inductance of the "hairpin" loop shown in Fig. 7.38. (Neglect the contribution from the ends; most of the flux comes from the long straight section.) You'll run into a snag that is characteristic of many self-inductance calculations. To get a definite answer, assume the wire has a tiny radius∈, and ignore any flux through the wire itself.
