Four, long, parallel power lines each carry 100 A currents. A cross-sectional diagram of these lines is a square, 20.0 cm on each side. For each of the three cases shown in Fig. E28.25, calculate the magnetic field at the center of the square.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a) the magnetic field at the center of the square is zero.

b) the magnetic field at the center of the square is zero.

c) the magnetic field is B=4.010-4Ttowards the left of the center.

Step by step solution

01

The magnetic field is due to a very long wire

The magnetic field due to the very long wire is given by

B=0l2蟺谤

Where, is the magnetic field due to wire,0 is the permeability of the vaccum, l is the current through the wire, and r is the distance from the wire.

The direction of the magnetic field due to the current-carrying wire:

The direction of the magnetic field due to the current-carrying conductor can be given by the right-hand thumb rule.

According to the right-hand thumb rule, if the thumb of the right-hand points along the direction of the current, then the remaining curled fingers of the same hand give the direction of the magnetic field due to the current.

02

Calculation of distance between center and wire

Given data:

  • The current flowing through the wire is =100 A.
  • Side of square is = 20.0 cm

Using Pythagoras theorem as;

r=(10cm)2+(10cm)2r=102cm

Where, r is the distance between center and wire.

03

Calculation of magnetic field in three cases


a)

Calculation of magnetic field in the first case

Here, The magnetic field due to the first wire and the magnetic field due to the third wire is the same in magnitude but opposite in direction (Clockwise).

Similarly, the magnetic field due to the second wire and the magnetic field due to the fourth wire is the same in magnitude but opposite in direction (Clockwise).

Hence, the magnetic field at the center of the square is B = 0 T .

b)

Calculation of magnetic field in the second case

Here, the magnetic field due to the first wire and the magnetic field due to the third wire is the same in magnitude but opposite in direction(Clockwise).

Similarly, the magnetic field due to the second wire and the magnetic field due to the fourth wire is the same in magnitude but opposite in direction(Anticlockwise).

Hence, the magnetic field at the center of the square is B = 0 T.

c)

Calculation of magnetic field in the third case

Here, the magnetic field due to the first wire and the magnetic field due to the third wire are the same in magnitude same in direction.

So, net magnetic field is:

B鈥测赌=B1+B3B鈥测赌=2B0

Where B'' is the net magnetic field due to the first and third wire, and B0is the magnetic field due to the first and third wire

Similarly, the magnetic field due to the second wire and the magnetic field due to the fourth wire is the same in magnitude but opposite in direction.

So, net magnetic field is:

B=B2+B4B=2B0

Where B' is the net magnetic field due to the first and third wire, and B0is the magnetic field due to the second and fourth wire.

04

Calculation of net magnetic field at the center of the square in the third case

Here, the angle between two vectors B' and B'' is 90.

So, according to vector summation of B' and B'' :

  • Vertical components cancel each other.
  • Horizontal components are added together.

Bnet=Bcos45(i^)+Bcos45(i^)Bnet=22B0cos45i^Bnet=40l2rcos45i^

Putting the values of constants in the above equation

Bnet=441071002102102cos45i^Bnet=4.0104i^T

Thus, the magnetic field is 4.0104Ttowards the left of the center.
