Calculate the torque exerted on the square loop shown in Fig. 6.6, due to the circular loop (assume is much larger than or ). If the square loop is free to rotate, what will its equilibrium orientation be?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The torque on the square loop due to circular loop is-μ04l2a2b2r3 and the orientation of the square is downwardz^ direction.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given data from the question:

The distance between the square loop and circular loop is r .

The distance r is much larger than or b.

Here, a is the radius of the circular loop and b is the side of the square loop.

02

Determine the equations to calculate the exerted torque on the square loop due to circular loop and equilibrium orientation.

The equation to calculate the torque is given as follows.

N=m×B

The equation calculate the magnetic dipole moment to is given as follows.

m=IA

Here lis the current and Ais the area.

The dot product of two different vector is equal to zero.

y^.z^=0

03

Calculate the torque exerted on the square loop due to circular loop and equilibrium orientation.

Calculate the magnetic moment of the circular loop.

M1=m1z^M1=IA1z^

Here A1is the area of the circular loop and I is the current.

M1=IÏ€²¹2z^

Calculate the magnetic moment of the square loop.

M2=m2yM2=IA2y

Here A2is the area of the circular loop,

M2=Ib2y

Calculate the magnetic strength due to circular loop.

role="math" localid="1657686888944" B1=μ04π1r33M1.r^r^-M1

Substitute y for r^into above equation.

B1=μ04π1r33M1.y^y^-M1

Substitute lÏ€²¹2z^forM1 into above equation.

B1=μ04Ï€1r33lÏ€²¹2z^.yy-m1z^B1=μ04Ï€lÏ€²¹2r3z^

Calculate the torque exerted on the square loop due to circular loop.

N=M2×B1

Substitute -μ04Ï€lÏ€²¹2r3z^for B1and lb2yfor M2into above equation.

role="math" localid="1657687839725" N=lb2y×-μ04Ï€lÏ€²¹2r3z^N=-μ04Ï€lÏ€²¹2×lb2r3y^×z^

Substitute for into above equation.

role="math" localid="1657687877416" N=-μ04Ï€lÏ€²¹2×lb2r3x^

Hence, the torque on the square loop due to circular loop is μ04l2a2b2r3and the square loop to be in the equilibrium the net torque on the loop should be zero therefore, the orientation of the square loop should be in downward direction.

On the basis of the naïve model presented in Sect. 6.1.3, estimate the magnetic susceptibility of a diamagnetic metal such as copper. Compare your answer with the empirical value in Table 6.1, and comment on any discrepancy.

A short circular cylinder of radius and length L carries a "frozen-in" uniform magnetization M parallel to its axis. Find the bound current, and sketch the magnetic field of the cylinder. (Make three sketches: one forL>>a, one forL<<a, and one forL≈a.) Compare this bar magnet with the bar electret of Prob. 4.11.

A coaxial cable consists of two very long cylindrical tubes, separated by linear insulating material of magnetic susceptibility χm. A currentI flows down the inner conductor and returns along the outer one; in each case, the current distributes itself uniformly over the surface (Fig. 6.24). Find the magnetic field in the region between the tubes. As a check, calculate the magnetization and the bound currents, and confirm that (together, of course, with the free currents) they generate the correct field.

Figure 6.24

At the interface between one linear magnetic material and another, the magnetic field lines bend (Fig. 6.32). Show that tanθ2/tanθ1=μ2/μ1 assuming there is no free current at the boundary. Compare Eq. 4.68.

Notice the following parallel:

{∇·D=0∇×E=0,ε0E=D-P(Nofreecharge)∇·B=0∇×H=0,μ0H=B-μ0M(Nofreecharge)

Thus, the transcription D→B,E→H,P→μ0M,ε0→μ0,, turns an electrostatic problem into an analogous magnetostatic one. Use this, together with your knowledge of the electrostatic results, to rederive.

(a) the magnetic field inside a uniformly magnetized sphere (Eq. 6.16);

(b) the magnetic field inside a sphere of linear magnetic material in an otherwise uniform magnetic field (Prob. 6.18);

(c) the average magnetic field over a sphere, due to steady currents within the sphere (Eq. 5.93).
