In Fig.3.011, switchS1is closed while switchS2is kept open. The inductance isL=0.115H, and the resistance isR=120Ω. (a) When the current has reached its final value, the energy stored in the inductor is0.26J. What is the emfεof the battery? (b) After the current has reached its final value,S1is opened androle="math" localid="1664253376215" S2is closed. How much time does it take for the energy stored in the inductor to decrease to0.13J, half of the original value?

Short Answer

a) ε=256V

b)role="math" localid="1664253462958" t=3.32×10-4s

Step by step solution

01

Calculate the EMF using energy and current equations

The current equation is given by i=imax(1-e-tT)and the energy equation is given by U=12Li2.

Given that L=0.115H,R=120Ωand U=0.26J.

U=12Li2i=2ULi=2×0.260.115i=2.13A

Use resistance and current to find EMF.

ε=iRε=2.13×120ε=256V

02

Calculate time for inductor energy to become half

The decreasing current is given by i=imaxe-tT

.The energy stored in the inductor will be given by

U=12Li2U=12Li2maxe-2RLtU=Umaxe-2RLt

Now, the energy becomes half the maximum value.

UUmax=12=e-2RLt

Take natural logarithm on both the sides.

localid="1664254817377" t=-L2Rln12t=0.115×ln22×120t=3.32×10-4s

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?

We have seen that a coulomb is an enormous amount of charge; it is virtually impossible to place a charge of 1 C on an object. Yet, a current of 10A,10C/sis quite reasonable. Explain this apparent discrepancy.

A beam of protons traveling at 1.20 km/s enters a uniform magnetic field, traveling perpendicular to the field. The beam exits the magnetic field, leaving the field in a direction pependicurlar to its original direction (Fig. E27.24). The beam travels a distance of 1.10 cm while in the field. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?

Each of the lettered points at the corners of the cube in Fig. Q27.12 represents a positive charge qmoving with a velocity of magnitude vin the direction indicated. The region in the figure is in a uniform magnetic field , parallel to the x-axis and directed toward the right. Which charges experience a force due to B⇶Ä? What is the direction of the force on each charge?

In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy 300keVis 16.0cm. You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used instead for alpha particles with energy 300keV. An alpha particle has chargeq=+2e and mass m=6.64×10-27kg. If the magnetic filed isn't changed, what will be the orbital radius of the alpha particles?
