Chapter 4: Q70P (page 952)

The wire shown in Fig. P28.70 is infinitely long and carries a current l. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field that this current

produces at point P

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude and direction of the magnetic field that this current produces at point P is 渭0I4蟺aout of the page.

Step by step solution

01

Concept of Biot-Savart Law.

Biot-Savart Law in physics is a law in the form of a mathematical expression that describes the capability of a constant electric field to produce magnetic field.

Mathematically,

dB鈫�=渭04蟺Id鈦�I鈫�脳r^r2 鈥�.. (1)

Here, 渭0is the permeability of free space, dl鈫�is the length element, and r is the radius.

02

Determination of the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field that this current produces at point P.

For the horizontal line segment which gives a zero magnetic field, from equation (1) you can write,

dl鈫�脳r^=0

Magnetic field provided by the vertical segment is,

B=12渭0I2蟺a=渭0I4蟺a

Thus, the resultant magnetic field is渭0I4蟺aand is directed out of the page.

Light Bulbs in Series and in Parallel. Two light bulbs have constant resistances of 400惟and 800惟. If the two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120Vline, find (a) the current through each bulb; (b) the power dissipated in each bulb; (c) the total power dissipated in both bulbs. The two light bulbs are now connected in parallel across the120Vline. Find (d) the current through each bulb; (e) the power dissipated in each bulb; (f) the total power dissipated in both bulbs. (g) In each situation, which of the two bulbs glows the brightest? (h) In which situation is there a greater total light output from both bulbs combined?

Why does an electric light bulb nearly always burn out just as you turn on the light, almost never while the light is shining?

In the circuit of Fig. E25.30, the 5.0 鈩� resistor is removed and replaced by a resistor of unknown resistance R. When this is done, an ideal voltmeter connected across the points band creads 1.9 V. Find (a) the current in the circuit and (b) the resistance R. (c) Graph the potential rises and drops in this circuit (see Fig. 25.20).

Questions: A conductor that carries a net charge has a hollow, empty cavity in its interior. Does the potential vary from point to point within the material of the conductor? What about within the cavity? How does the potential inside the cavity compare to the potential within the material of the conductor?

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脳10-27kg. If the magnetic filed isn't changed, what will be the orbital radius of the alpha particles?
