Chapter 4: Q14DQ (page 947)

A metal ring carries a current that causes a magnetic field B0at the center of the ring and a field B at point P a distance xfrom the center along the axis of the ring. If the radius of the ring is doubled, find the magnetic field at the center. Will the field at point P change by the same factor? Why?

Short Answer

Expert verified

No, the field at point P does not change by the same factor. And the magnetic field at the center when radius of the loop doubledB0=12B0

Step by step solution

01

Definition of the current

The term current may be defined as the ratio of charge and time.

02

Determine the magnetic field and effect on field by the same factor.

At the center of circular current carrying wire with radius rthe magnetic field IS B0=渭0l2rand magnetic field for the distance from the center of the loop, along the axis of ring is

B=渭02Ir2r2+x23/2

And at a distance x from the center of the loop, the field is B'=渭02i2r22r2+x23/2112B

Hence,no, the field at point P does not change by the same factor. And the magnetic field at the center when radius of the loop doubled B'0=12B0.

A heart defibrillator is used to enable the heart to start beating if it has stopped. This is done by passing a large current of12Athrough the body at25Vfor a very short time, usually3.0msabout . (a) What power does the defibrillator deliver to the body, and (b) how much energy is transferred ?

The definition of resistivity (蚁=EJ) implies that an electrical field exist inside a conductor. Yet we saw that in chapter 21 there can be no electrostatic electric field inside a conductor. Is there can be contradiction here? Explain.

BIO The average bulk resistivity of the human body (apart from surface resistance of the skin) is about 5.0惟路m. The conducting path between the hands can be represented approximately as a cylinder 1.6 m long and 0.10 m in diameter. The skin resistance can be made negligible bysoaking the hands in salt water. (a) What is the resistance between the hands if the skin resistance is negligible? (b) What potential difference between thehands is needed for a lethal shock current of 100 mA ? (Note that your result shows that small potential differences produce dangerous currents when the skin is damp.) (c) With the current in part (b),what power is dissipated in the body?

Electrons in an electric circuit pass through a resistor. The wire on either side of the resistor has the same diameter.(a) How does the drift speed of the electrons before entering the resistor compare to the speed after leaving the resistor? (b) How does the potential energy for an electron before entering the resistor compare to the potential energy after leaving the resistor? Explain your reasoning.

Ordinary household electric lines in North America usually operate at 120 V . Why is this a desirable voltage, rather than a value considerably larger or smaller? On the other hand, automobiles usually have 12 V electrical systems. Why is this a desirable voltage?
