11. a. Can you tell which of the inductors in FIGURE Q30.11 has the larger current through it? If so, which one? Explain.

b. Can you tell through which inductor the current is changing more rapidly? If so, which one? Explain.

c. If the current enters the inductor from the bottom, can you tell if the current is increasing, decreasing, or staying the same? If so, which? Explain.

FIGURE Q30.11

Short Answer

Expert verified

Part (a )It is not possible to calculate the current, and hence it is not possible to say which current is greater.

Part (b) The current through the second inductor is changing more rapidly than the first inductor.

Part (c )The current flowing through the inductors are decreasing.

Step by step solution

01

Part (a)

The voltage across an inductor is given by

V=LdIdt

The above equation we can write that

dIdt=VLdI=VLdtI=VLt+C

Where C is the constant of integration. Now, since the values of i and C are not known, it is not possible to calculate current Ithrough the given inductors.

Conclusion:

It is not possible to calculate the current, and hence it is not possible to say which current is greater.

02

Part (b)

We have seen that

dIdt=VL

For the first inductor we have

dI1dt=2V2H=1A/s

And for the second inductor we have

dI2dt=4V1H=4A/s

Hence, the current through the second inductor is changing rapidly.

Conclusion:

The current through the second inductor is changing more rapidly than the first inductor.

03

Part (c)

Part (c)

As it is already seen, the rate of change of current through inductor is given by

dIdt=VL

Now if the current is increasing the rate of change of current will be positive, that is the voltage and current will be in same direction. And, current is decreasing, the rate of change of current will be negative, that is the voltage and direction of current will be opposite.

Figure shows that the current is going upwards, but the voltage is downward. That is current is flowing opposite to the voltage, hence, dIdtis negative. Hence, current is decreasing.

The current flowing through the inductors are decreasing.

You鈥檝e decided to make the magnetic projectile launcher shown in FIGURE for your science project. An aluminum bar of length lslides along metal rails through a magnetic fieldB.The switch closes at t=0s, while the bar is at rest, and a battery of emf Ebatstarts a current flowing around the loop. The battery has internal resistance r. The resistances of the rails and the bar are effectively zero.

a. Show that the bar reaches a terminal speed Vterm, and find an expression for Vterm.

b. Evaluate EbatforVterm=1.0V,r=0.10,l=6.0cmandB=0.50T.

MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) is a medical technique that produces detailed 鈥減ictures鈥 of the interior of the body. The patient is placed into a solenoid that is 40 cm in diameter and 1.0 m long. A 100 A current creates a 5.0 T magnetic field inside the solenoid. To carry such a large current, the solenoid wires are cooled with liquid helium until they become superconducting (no electric resistance).

a. How much magnetic energy is stored in the solenoid? Assume that the magnetic field is uniform within the solenoid and quickly drops to zero outside the solenoid.

b. How many turns of wire does the solenoid have?
