Short Answer

(a) It is sown that the total current passing through the entire cross section of the wire is I0.

(b) The expression for the magnitude of the magnetic field in region r≥aisB=μ0I0

(c) Theexpression for the current Icontained in a circular cross section of radius r ≤aand cantered at the cylinder axis isl02r2a22-r2a2

(d) The expression according to Ampere’s Law of the magnitude of the magnetic fieldB→ in the region r≤a isB=μ0l0r2Ï€²¹22-r2a2

When r = a the magnetic fields calculated in part (b) and (d) is the same.

Step by step solution

01

(a) Determination if the total current passing through the entire cross section of the wire is I0.

Refer to the image below,

Here, the cross section of the cylinder is divided into thin concentric rings of radius r and dr with current through each ring as dI,

The differential area is dA=2Ï€rdr

So,

dl=JdA=2Ï€°ù»å°ù

Integrate the above equation by substituting the current density expression from the question,

dI=2I0πa21−ra22πrdr=4I0a21−ra2rdr

Therefore,

I=∫0a dI=4I0a212r2−14r4a20a=I0

Hence proved.

02

(b) Determination of the expression for the magnitude of the magnetic field in region r  ≥a.

With the help of Ampere’s Law, a ampere’s circle is drawn as shown below.

Apply Ampere’s circuital law for the circle of radius r ≤a

∫B→⋅dl→=B∫dl=B(2πr)=μ0Iend=μ0I0

Thus, the expression of magnetic field islocalid="1668342539849" B=μ0I0

03

(c) Determination of the current I contained in a circular cross section of radius r ≤ a and cantered at the cylinder axis.

Again dividing the cross section into thin concentric strips of radius r' and width dr' as shown below,

Similar to part (a), the current passing through the element chosen is,

dI=4I0a21−r′a2r′dr′

Thus, Integrate the above equation to obtain the expression for current,

I=∫0a dl=4I0a212r′2−14r′4a20r=I0r2a22−r2a2

04

(d) Determination of the expression according to Ampere’s Law of the magnitude of the magnetic field  in the region r  ≤a.

With the help of Ampere’s Law, a ampere’s circle is drawn as shown below.

Apply Ampere’s circuital law for the circle of radius r ≥a

∫B→⋅dl→=B∫dl=B(2πr)=μ0Iencl=μ0I0r2a22−r2a2

Thus, the expression of magnetic field is B=μ0I0r2πa22−r2a2

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?

The battery for a certain cell phone is rated at3.70V.According to the manufacturer it can produce3.15×104Jof electrical energy, enough for 2.25hof operation, before needing to be recharged. Find the average current that this cell phone draws when turned on.

A25.0-Ωbulb is connected across the terminals of a12.0-Vbattery having3.50Ωof internal resistance. What percentage of the power of the battery is dissipated across the internal resistance and hence is not available to the bulb?
