Chapter 29: Q.68 - Excercises And Problems (page 796)

a. An infinitely long sheet of charge of width L lies in the x y plane between x=-L / 2 and x=L / 2. The surface charge density is \eta. Derive an expression for the electric field Eat height zabove the centerline of the sheet.

b. Verify that your expression has the expected behavior if zLand if zL

c. Draw a graph of field strength E versus z.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a). the expression for electric field Eat height zand above the center line of sheet is

localid="1650103738525">0tan-1L2zk^

(b).Therefore, the above expression has the expected behavior if z<<L the total electric field is tends to infinity and if z>>L, the total electric field is tends to zero.

(c). the graph of field strength E versus z is shown in figure I

Step by step solution

01

part(a) step:1 given information

An infinitely long sheet of charge of width lies in the x y-plane between -L2to L2.The surface charge density .

The electric field due to small element in the sheet is,

dE=dx20x2+z2cosk^(l)

0 is the vacuum permittivity.

is the surface charge density.

d E is the electric field due to small element.

In trianglelocalid="1650104006638" ABC

localid="1650104011399" cos=zx2+z2

Substitute localid="1650104022042" zx2+z2forcosin equation (I)

localid="1650104015937" dE=dx20x2+z2zx2+z2k^

localid="1650104026083" =z20dxx2+z2k^

The total electric field due to infinite sheet is,

localid="1650104030518" E=-L2L2z20dxx2+z2k^

localid="1650104034469" =z201ztan-1xz-L2L2k^

02

part (b) step 1: given information

Given info: An infinitely long sheet of charge of width L lies in the

x y-plane between -L2to L2. The surface charge density .

The total electric field expression is,

E=0tan-1L2zk^

if z>>L the value of tan-1L2zis tends to infinity. So the value of total electric field is also tends to infinity.

If z<<Lthe value of tan-1L2z is tends to zero. So the value of total electric field is also tends to zero.

03

part (C) step 1: given information

An infinitely long sheet of charge of width L lies in the x y-plane between -L2to L2. The surface charge density .

An electron in a cathode-ray tube is accelerated through a potential difference of 10kV, then passes through the 2.0-cmwide region of uniform magnetic field in FIGURE. What field strength will deflect the electron by 10?

a. A 65-cm-diameter cyclotron uses a 500Voscillating potential difference between the Dees. What is the maximum kinetic energy of a proton if the magnetic field strength is 0.75T?

b. How many revolutions does the proton make before leaving the cyclotron?

A Hall-effect probe to measure magnetic field strengths needs to be calibrated in a known magnetic field. Although it is not easy to do, magnetic fields can be precisely measured by measuring the cyclotron frequency of protons. A testing laboratory adjusts a magnetic field until the proton's cyclotron frequency is 10.0MHz. At this field strength, the Hall voltage on the probe is0.543mVwhen the current through the probe is0.150mA. Later, when an unknown magnetic field is measured, the Hall voltage at the same current is1.735mV. What is the strength of this magnetic field?

The earth鈥檚 magnetic field, with a magnetic dipole moment of 8.01022Am2, is generated by currents within the molten iron of the earth鈥檚 outer core. Suppose we model the core current as a 3000km-diameter current loop made from a 1000-km-diameter 鈥渨ire.鈥 The loop diameter is measured from the centers of this very fat wire.

a. What is the current in the current loop?

b. What is the current density J in the current loop?

c. To decide whether this is a large or a small current density, compare it to the current density of a 1.0A current in a 1.0mm-diameter wire.

A non-uniform magnetic field exerts a net force on a current loop of radius R. FIGURE P29.78 shows a magnetic field that is diverging from the end of a bar magnet.

Calculate the force if R = 2.0 cm, I = 0.50 A, B = 200 mT, and u = 20掳.
