The magnetic field of a cylindrical magnet that has a pole-face diameter of 3.3 cmcan be varied sinusoidally between 29.6 Tand 30.0 Tat a frequency of 15Hz. (The current in a wire wrapped around a permanent magnet is varied to give this variation in the net field.) At a radial distance of 1.6 cm, what is the amplitude of the electric field induced by the variation?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Amplitude of electric field induce is,Em=0.15Vm

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

r=1.6×10-2m

Diameter of cylindrical magnet D=3.3cm=3.3×10-2m

Frequency of sinusoidally varying magnetic field, f = 15.0 Hz

02

Determining the concept

The rate of change of magnetic flux is related to the line integral of the electric field by Faraday’s law, so use Faraday’s law to evaluate the line integral,E.ds. Using this, find the magnitude of the electric field inside the solenoid at distance rfrom the axis of the solenoid.

Faraday'slaw of electromagnetic inductionstates, Whenever a conductor is placed in a varying magnetic field, an electromotive force is induced in it.

Formulae are as follow:

o¨ind=-dϕBdt=E.dsdϕB=B.dAE=r2dBdtω=2ττf

Where,ΦBis magnetic flux, B is magnetic field, A is area,𝜀 is emf, E is electric field,𝜔 is angular velocity, f is frequency, r is radius.

Determining the amplitude of electric field induced

As mentioned in the problem the magnetic field is varying sinusoidally, let’s assume that the following form of time is dependent on magnetic field,

B=B0sinωt=B0sin2ττft

As the field is varying in between two values 30.0 T and 29.6 T

Taking difference and dividing it by 2, the amplitude of field,

B0=30.0-29.62=042=0.2TB=0.2Tsin2ττ×15×t=0.2Tsin30ττt

Now, consider magnitude electric field inside solenoid at distance r from the axis of solenoid is,

E=r2dBdt=r2.ddt02.Tsin30ττt=0.2×r2×30ττcos30ττtE=0.2×1.6×10-22×30ττcos30ττt

E will be maximum when cosine will have maximum value which is equal to one

Emax=0.2×1.6×10-22×30ττEmax=15.072×10-2Emax=0.15Vm

Hence, amplitude of electric field induce is,Emax=0.15Vm

Therefore, value cosine function fluctuates between +1 and -1. The magnitude of cosine cannot exceed one, by considering this fact, the amplitude of electric field induced can be found.

In Figure (a), the inductor has 25 turns and the ideal battery has an emf of 16 V. Figure (b) gives the magnetic fluxφ through each turn versus the current i through the inductor.

A square wire loop with 2.00msides is perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field, with half the area of the loop in the field as shown in Figure. The loop contains an ideal battery with emfε=20.0V. If the magnitude of the field varies with time according toB=0.0420-0.870t, with B in Tesla and t in seconds, (a)what is the net emf in the circuit?(b)what is the direction of the (net) current around the loop?

Figure (a) shows a circuit consisting of an ideal battery with emf ε=6.00mV, a resistance R, and a small wire loop of area 500cm2. For the time interval t = 10 s to t = 20 s, an external magnetic field is set up throughout the loop. The field is uniform, its direction is into the page in Figure (a), and the field magnitude is given by B = at, where B is in Tesla, a is a constant, and t is in seconds. Figure (b) gives the current i in the circuit before, during, and after the external field is set up. The vertical axis scale is set byis=2.0mA. Find the constant a in the equation for the field magnitude.

In Figure, a long rectangular conducting loop, of width L, resistance R, and mass m, is hung in a horizontal, uniform magnetic fieldBthat is directed into the page and that exists only above line a. The loop is then dropped; during its fall, it accelerates until it reaches a certain terminal speedvt. Ignoring air drag, find an expression forvt.
