A strip of copper \(2.0 \mathrm{cm}\) wide carries a current \(I=\) $30.0 \mathrm{A}\( to the right. The strip is in a magnetic field \)B=5.0 \mathrm{T}$ into the page. (a) What is the direction of the average magnetic force on the conduction electrons? (b) The Hall voltage is \(20.0 \mu \mathrm{V}\). What is the drift velocity?

Short Answer

Expert verified
The direction of the average magnetic force on the conduction electrons is upwards. (b) What is the drift velocity of the conduction electrons in the copper strip considering the Hall voltage? The drift velocity of the conduction electrons in the copper strip is \(1.110\times 10^{-2}\) cm/s.

Step by step solution

01

Determine the direction of the magnetic force on the conduction electrons

To determine the direction of the magnetic force, we use the right-hand rule. First, point your right thumb in the direction of the current (to the right), then point your fingers in the direction of the magnetic field (into the page). The palm of your hand will now face in the direction of the magnetic force on the conduction electrons.
02

Apply the right-hand rule

Following the right-hand rule, when pointing your thumb to the right and fingers into the page, you will find that the palm of your hand points upwards. Therefore, the direction of the average magnetic force on the conduction electrons is upwards.
03

Calculate the drift velocity using the Hall voltage

To find the drift velocity, we need to use the given Hall voltage. The Hall voltage V_H is related to the magnetic field, current, and strip width by \(V_H = \frac{IB}{ne}\) where \(I\) is the current, \(B\) is the magnetic field, \(n\) is the charge density of electrons, and \(e\) is the elementary charge. First, we need to find the charge density n for copper. The charge density can be calculated by multiplying the number of free electrons per atom (z) and the atomic mass density (# of atoms per {[}cm^3{]}). For copper: z = 1 (assumption: one free electron per atom), Atomic mass = \(m = 63.5\text{ g/mol}\), Density = \(蟻 = 8.92\text{ g/cm}^3\), and Avogadro's number: \(N_A = 6.022 \times 10 ^ {23}\text{ mol}^{-1}\) \(n = \frac{z蟻N_A}{m}\)
04

Calculate the charge density for copper

Substituting the values in the formula, we get: \(n = \frac{(1)(8.92)(6.022\times 10^{23})}{63.5}\) \(n = 8.476 {\times} 10^{22}\text{/cm}^3\)
05

Calculate the drift velocity

Finally, we can rearrange the Hall voltage formula to obtain the drift velocity, v: \(v = \frac{IB}{neV_H}\) Substitute the values to get, \(v = \frac{(30)(5)}{(8.476\times 10^{22})(1.6\times 10^{-19})(20\times 10^{-6})}\) \(v = 1.110\times 10^{-2}\text{ cm/s}\) The drift velocity of the conduction electrons in the copper strip is \(1.110\times 10^{-2}\) cm/s.

At a certain point on Earth's surface in the southern hemisphere, the magnetic field has a magnitude of \(5.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{T}\) and points upward and toward the north at an angle of \(55^{\circ}\) above the horizontal. A cosmic ray muon with the same charge as an electron and a mass of $1.9 \times 10^{-28} \mathrm{kg}$ is moving directly down toward Earth's surface with a speed of \(4.5 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s} .\) What is the magnitude and direction of the force on the muon?
In an electric motor, a circular coil with 100 turns of radius $2.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ can rotate between the poles of a magnet. When the current through the coil is \(75 \mathrm{~mA},\) the maximum torque that the motor can deliver is \(0.0020 \mathrm{~N} \cdot \mathrm{m} .\) (a) What is the strength of the magnetic field? (b) Is the torque on the coil clockwise or counterclockwise as viewed from the front at the instant shown in the figure?

A current of \(2.00 \mathrm{A}\) passes through the rod. (a) What direction is the force on the rod? (b) If there is no friction between the rails and the rod, how fast is the rod moving after it has traveled \(8.00 \mathrm{m}\) down the rails?
