Prove Alfven's theorem: In a perfectly conducting fluid (say, a gas of free electrons), the magnetic flux through any closed loop moving with the fluid is constant in time. (The magnetic field lines are, as it were, "frozen" into the fluid.)

(a) Use Ohm's law, in the form of Eq. 7.2, together with Faraday's law, to prove that if =and is J finite, then

Bt=(vB)

(b) Let S be the surface bounded by the loop (P)at time t , and S'a surface bounded by the loop in its new position (P')at time t+dt (see Fig. 7.58). The change in flux is

诲桅=S'B(t+dt)da-SB(t)da

Use B=0to show that

S'B(t+dt)da+RB(t+dt)da=SB(t+dt)da

(Where R is the "ribbon" joining P and P' ), and hence that

诲桅=dtSBtda-RB(t+dt)da

(For infinitesimal dt ). Use the method of Sect. 7.1.3 to rewrite the second integral as

dtP(Bv)dI

And invoke Stokes' theorem to conclude that

诲桅dt=S(Bt-vB)da

Together with the result in (a), this proves the theorem.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The value to prove that Bt=(vB).

(b) The value of invoke stokes鈥 theorem is ddt=SBt-vBda=0.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

Let S be the surface bounded by the loop (P) at time t .

Let S' a surface bounded by the loop in its new position (P') at time t+dt .

Let R is the "ribbon" joining P and P' .

02

Determine the formula of ohm’s law using faraday’s law and formula of invoke stokes’ theorem.

Write the formula ofohm鈥檚 law using faraday鈥檚 law.

J=(E+vB) 鈥︹ (1)

Here, is charge density, Eis electrical field andB is magnetic field.

Write the formula of invoke stokes鈥 theorem.

Bda=0 鈥︹ (2)

Here,B is magnetic field and da is the radius of the circle.

03

(a) Determine the value to prove that ∂B∂t=∇×(∇×B) .

According to ohm鈥檚 law

Substitute 0 for J and for into equation (1).

E+vB=0

Taking curl on both sides then

E+vB=0

From faraday鈥檚 law

E=-Bt

Then:

-Bt+B=0Bt=B

Therefore, the value to prove that Bt=B.

04

(b) Determine the value of invoke stokes’ theorem.

As we know that for any closed surface.

B=0

Determine invoke stokes鈥 theorem.

Substitute S'Bt+dtda-RBt+dtda-SBt.daforBinto equation (2).

S'Bt+dtda-RBt+dtda-SBt.da=0

Here:

d=S'Bt+dtda-SBtda-RBt+dtda=SBt+dtda-Btda-RBt+dtda=SBdtdtdt-RBt+dtda=SBdtdtdt-RBt+dtdIvdt

Solve further as

Then:

d=dtSBtda-dtSBdIvd=dtSBtda-SvBdaddt=SBt-vBda=0

A perfectly conducting spherical shell of radius rotates about the z axis with angular velocity , in a uniform magnetic field B=B0Z^. Calculate the emf developed between the 鈥渘orth pole鈥 and the equator. Answer:localid="1658295408106" [12B0蝇伪2].

Electrons undergoing cyclotron motion can be sped up by increasing the magnetic field; the accompanying electric field will impart tangential acceleration. This is the principle of the betatron. One would like to keep the radius of the orbit constant during the process. Show that this can be achieved by designing a magnet such that the average field over the area of the orbit is twice the field at the circumference (Fig. 7.53). Assume the electrons start from rest in zero field, and that the apparatus is symmetric about the center of the orbit. (Assume also that the electron velocity remains well below the speed of light, so that nonrelativistic mechanics applies.) [Hint: Differentiate Eq. 5.3 with respect to time, and use .F=ma=qE]

Suppose the conductivity of the material separating the cylinders in Ex. 7.2 is not uniform; specifically, (s)=k/s, for some constant . Find the resistance between the cylinders. [Hint: Because a is a function of position, Eq. 7.5 does not hold, the charge density is not zero in the resistive medium, and E does not go like 1/s. But we do know that for steady currents is the same across each cylindrical surface. Take it from there.]

Question:Calculate the energy stored in the toroidal coil of Ex. 7.11, by applying Eq. 7.35. Use the answer to check Eq. 7.28.

An alternating current I(t)=I0cos(t) (amplitude 0.5 A, frequency ) flows down a straight wire, which runs along the axis of a toroidal coil with rectangular cross section (inner radius 1cm , outer radius 2 cm , height 1 cm, 1000 turns). The coil is connected to a 500 resistor.

(a) In the quasistatic approximation, what emf is induced in the toroid? Find the current, IR(t), in the resistor.

(b) Calculate the back emf in the coil, due to the current IR(t) . What is the ratio of the amplitudes of this back emf and the "direct" emf in (a)?
