An electromagnetic wave with frequency 65.0 Hz travels in an insulating magnetic material that has dielectric constant 3.64 and relative permeability 5.18 at this frequency. The electric field has amplitude 7.20×10-3V/m. (a) What is the speed of propagation of the wave? (b) What is the wavelength of the wave? (c) What is the amplitude of the magnetic field?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The speed of propagation of the wave is 6.91×107m/s.
  2. The wavelength of the wave is 1.06×106m.
  3. The amplitude of the magnetic field is1.04×10-10T .

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Define frequency and write formulas.

The number of waves that moves a fixed point in unit time is known as frequency.

f=1TorÓ¬2Ï€

Where,T =Time period in seconds and Ó¬is angular frequency in .

The frequency, wavelength, and speed of light of any wave are related by the wavelength-frequency relationship.

The wavelength-frequency relationship is:

c=λf

Where, is the speed of light which is equal to 3×108m/s,λis the wavelength and f is the frequency.

The wavelength is inversely proportional to the frequency.

λ=cforvf

Where, v is velocity of wave in m/s .

The relation between wave number and wavelength is:

k=2πλ

Where, k is wavenumber in rad/m.

The formula used to determine the amplitude of electric and magnetic fields of the wave are:

Emax=2lε0cBmax=Emaxc

02

Determine the speed of propagation of wave.

Given that,

K=3.64Km=5.18

The speed of the propagation is:

v=cKKm=3×1083.645.18=6.91×107m/s

Hence, speed of propagation of the wave is 6.91×107m/s.

03

Determine the wavelength of wave.

Given that, f=Hz

The wavelength of wave is:

λ=vf=6.91×10765=1.06×106m

Hence the wavelength of the wave is1.06×106m .

04

Determine the amplitudes of magnetic fields.

Given that, Emax=7.2×10-3V/m

The formula used to determine the amplitude of electric and magnetic fields of the wave are:

Bmax=Emaxc

Substitute the values of variables

Bmax=7.2×10-36.91×103=1.04×10-10T

Hence, the amplitude of the magnetic fields of the wave1.04×10-10T is respectively.

A long, straight solenoid with a cross-sectional area of 8.00 cm2 is wound with 90 turns of wire per centimetre, and the windings carry a current of 0.350 A. A second winding of 12 turns encircles the solenoid at its centre. The current in the solenoid is turned off such that the magnetic field of the solenoid becomes zero in 0.0400 s. What is the average induced emf in the second winding?

The heating element of an electric dryer is rated at 4.1 kW when connected to a 240-V line. (a) What is the current in the heating element? Is 12-gauge wire large enough to supply this current? (b) What is the resistance of the dryer’s heating element at its operating temperature? (c) At 11 cents per kWh, how much does it cost per hour to operate the dryer?

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. These cyclotrons typically accelerate H-(the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5MeVto20MeV.This ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible about 12000of the proton’s mass. A typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9T..(a) What is the speed of a 5.0-MeVH-? (b) If the H-has energy 5.0MeVandB=1.9T what is the radius of this ion’s circulator orbit?

An alpha particle (a He nucleus containing two protons and two neutrons and having a mass of 6.64×10-7kg) travelling horizontally at 35.6km/senter a uniform, vertical,1.80-T magnetic field.(a) What is the diameter of the path followed by this alpha particle? (b) what effect does the magnetic field have on the speed of the particle? (c) What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the alpha particle while it is in the magnetic field? (d) explain why the speed of the particle does not change even though an unbalanced external force acts on it.
