The earth’s magnetic dipole moment is .
a. What is the magnetic field strength on the surface of the earth at the earth’s north magnetic pole? How does this compare to the value in Table 29.1? You can assume that the current loop is deep inside the earth.
b. Astronauts discover an earth-size planet without a magnetic field. To create a magnetic field at the north pole with the same strength as earth’s, they propose running a current through a wire around the equator. What size current would be needed?
Magnetic resonance imaging needs a magnetic field strength of . The solenoid is long and in diameter. It is tightly wound with a single layer of diameter superconducting wire. What size current is needed?
A wire along the x-axis carries current I in the negative x-direction through the magnetic field
a. Draw a graph of B versus x over the interval .
b. Find an expression for the net force on the wire.
c. Find an expression for the net torque on the wire about the point x = 0.
At what distance on the axis of a current loop is the magnetic field half the strength of the field at the center of the loop? Give your fanswer as a multiple of .
The uniform magnetic field in points in the positive -direction. An electron enters the region of magnetic field with a speed of and at an angle of above the -plane. Find the radius and the pitch of the electron's spiral trajectory.
