A12 Hinductor carries a current of2.0 A. At what rate must the current be changed to produce a60 Vemf in the inductor?

Short Answer

Expert verified

didt=-5.0A/s

Step by step solution

01

Given

  1. Inductance of inductor, L=12.0H
  2. Current through inductor,i=2.0A
  3. Emf induced, ε=60V
02

Understanding the concept

We can use Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction and the definition of inductance to find the rate of change of current through the inductor.

Formula:

ε=-dϕBdt

ϕB=Li

03

Calculate at what rate must the current be changed to produce a emf in the inductor

We have

ε=-dϕBdt=-ddtLi

As the inductance is fixed for a given inductor, then

ε=-dϕBdt=-Ldidt

So using the above equation we get

didt=-εL=6012.0=- 5.0A/s

In Fig. 30-23, a long straight wire with current ipasses (without touching) three rectangular wire loops with edge lengths L, 1.5L, and 2L. The loops are widely spaced (so as not to affect one another). Loops 1 and 3 are symmetric about the long wire. Rank the loops according to the size of the current induced in them if current iis (a) constant and (b) increasing, greatest first.

The magnetic field in the interstellar space of our galaxy has a magnitude of about B=10-10T. How much energy is stored in this field in a cube l=10light‐yearson edge? (For scale, note that the nearest star is 3.4light-yearsdistant and the radius of the galaxy is about 8 104light-years. )

A rectangular loop ( area=0.15m2) turns in a uniform magnetic field, B=0.20 T.When the angle between the field and the normal to the plane of the loop is ττ2radand increasing at0.60 rad/s, what emf is induced in the loop?

Figure shows a copper strip of width W = 16.0 cmthat has been bent to form a shape that consists of a tube of radius R = 1.8 cmplus two parallel flat extensions. Current i = 35 mAis distributed uniformly across the width so that the tube is effectively a one-turn solenoid. Assume that the magnetic field outside the tube is negligible and the field inside the tube is uniform. (a) What is the magnetic field magnitude inside the tube? (b) What is the inductance of the tube (excluding the flat extensions)?
