Question: The preceding problem was an artificial model for the charging capacitor, designed to avoid complications associated with the current spreading out over the surface of the plates. For a more realistic model, imagine thin wires that connect to the centers of the plates (Fig. 7.46a). Again, the current I is constant, the radius of the capacitor is a, and the separation of the plates is w << a. Assume that the current flows out over the plates in such a way that the surface charge is uniform, at any given time, and is zero at t = 0.

(a) Find the electric field between the plates, as a function of t.

(b) Find the displacement current through a circle of radius in the plane mid-way between the plates. Using this circle as your "Amperian loop," and the flat surface that spans it, find the magnetic field at a distance s from the axis.

Figure 7.46

(c) Repeat part (b), but this time uses the cylindrical surface in Fig. 7.46(b), which is open at the right end and extends to the left through the plate and terminates outside the capacitor. Notice that the displacement current through this surface is zero, and there are two contributions to Ienc.

(b)

The value of displacement currentId=EdS .

The value of magnetic field at a distance s from the axis is B→=μ0I2sAϕ^.

(c) The value of magnetic field in the same direction as the case b isB→=μ0I2πsa2 .

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question.

Consider that the current flows out over the plates in such a way that the surface charge is uniform, at any given time, and is zero at t = 0.

02

Determine the formula of electric field between the plates, as a function of t.

Write the formula of electric field between the plates, as a function of.

E=σtε0 …… (1)

Here, σt is charge on the plate and ε0is relative permittivity.

Write the formula of magnetic field at a distance s from the axis.

B=μ0Id2πs …… (2)

Here, μ0is permeability, Idis displacement current and s is the surface of the plates.

Write the formula of magnetic field in the same direction as the case b.

B=μ0I2πs1-IsI …… (3)

Here, μ0is permeability, I is current, IS is current passing through curve.

03

(a) Determine the electric field between the plates.

Determine the charge on the plate is:

Qt=σtS=It

Since the charge density grows linearly with time and is homogeneous throughout the plate. The electric field is thus:

Determine the electric field between the plates, as a function of t.

Substitute QtSforσtinto equation (1).

E=Qtε0S=ItSε0

Here, S is the surface of the plates.

04

(b) Determine the displacement current and magnetic field at a distance s  from the axis.

The magnetic field will curve around the current if it flows down the z-axis, using Ampere's equation with the displacement current term.

Determine the displacement current.

Id=EdS

Determine the magnetic field at a distance from the axis.

Substitute EDS for Id into equation (2).

B=μ0ε02πsddt∫SEdS=μ0s2π2πsIπa2=μ0I2sAϕ^

Whereas, the integration loop was positioned between the capacitor plates as a circle whose radius was coaxial with the plates.

05

(c) Determine the magnetic field in the same direction as the case b.

Using a new bounding surface but the same Amperian loop once more, the magnetic field is:

2πsB=μ0Ienc

There will be two contributions from "regular" current but there is contribution from the displacement current. Given that the surface's normal points inwards, one is on surface S1 (positive), and the other is at curve C1 (negative).

2πsB=μ0Ienc2πsB=μ0I-μ0IsB=μ0I2πs1-IsI

The charge density must only be a function of time for the current I(s) to travel through curve. Let's say that all we search for is the charge density on the circle enclosed by curve:

σt=Qs,ts2π=1s2πI-Ist

For to only be a function of time the term I-Is needs to be proportional to;

I-Is=Cs2

Substitute 0 for l(s) into above equation.

C=Is2

Now substitute 1s2for C into above equation.

Is=I-Isa2

Determine the magnetic field in the same direction as the case b.

B=μ0I2πs1-1+sa2=μ0I2πsa2

Therefore, the value of magnetic field in the same direction as the case b is .

B→=μ0I2πsa2

An alternating current l=l0cos(wt)flows down a long straight wire, and returns along a coaxial conducting tube of radius a.

(a) In what direction does the induced electric field point (radial, circumferential, or longitudinal)?

(b) Assuming that the field goes to zero as s→∞, findE=(s,t).

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?

A square loop is cut out of a thick sheet of aluminum. It is then placed so that the top portion is in a uniform magnetic field , B and is allowed to fall under gravity (Fig. 7 .20). (In the diagram, shading indicates the field region; points into the page.) If the magnetic field is 1 T (a pretty standard laboratory field), find the terminal velocity of the loop (in m/s ). Find the velocity of the loop as a function of time. How long does it take (in seconds) to reach, say, 90% of the terminal velocity? What would happen if you cut a tiny slit in the ring, breaking the circuit? [Note: The dimensions of the loop cancel out; determine the actual numbers, in the units indicated.]

A square loop of wire, with sides of length a , lies in the first quadrant of the xy plane, with one comer at the origin. In this region, there is a nonuniform time-dependent magnetic field B(y,t)=ky3t2z^ (where k is a constant). Find the emf induced in the loop.

A transformer (Prob. 7.57) takes an input AC voltage of amplitude V1, and delivers an output voltage of amplitude V2, which is determined by the turns ratio (V2V1=N2N1). If N2>N1, the output voltage is greater than the input voltage. Why doesn't this violate conservation of energy? Answer: Power is the product of voltage and current; if the voltage goes up, the current must come down. The purpose of this problem is to see exactly how this works out, in a simplified model.

(a) In an ideal transformer, the same flux passes through all turns of the primary and of the secondary. Show that in this case M2=L1L2, where Mis the mutual inductance of the coils, and L1,L2, are their individual self-inductances.

(b) Suppose the primary is driven with AC voltage Vin=V1cos(Ó¬t), and the secondary is connected to a resistor, R. Show that the two currents satisfy the relations

L1=dl1dt+Mdl2dt=V1cos(Ó¬t);L1=dl2dt+Mdl1dt=-I2R.

(c) Using the result in (a), solve these equations for localid="1658292112247" l1(t)and l2(t). (Assume l2has no DC component.)

(d) Show that the output voltage (Vout=l2R)divided by the input voltage (Vin)is equal to the turns ratio: VoutVin=N2N1.

(e) Calculate the input power localid="1658292395855" (Pin=Vinl1)and the output power (Pout=Voutl2), and show that their averages over a full cycle are equal.
