Chapter 1: Q71P (page 1)

Figure 32-38 shows a loop model (loop L) for a paramagnetic material. (a) Sketch the field lines through and about the material due to the magnet. What is the direction of (b) the loop’s net magnetic dipole moment μ→, (c) the conventional current iin the loop (clockwise or counterclockwise in the figure), and (d) the magnetic force acting on the loop?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The field lines through and about the material due to magnet are sketched.

(b) Direction of loop’s magnetic dipole moment μ→is –x direction.

(c) Direction of conventional current iin the loop is counterclockwise.

(d) Magnetic force acting on loop is toward left.

Step by step solution

01

Understanding the concepts of magnetism:

By using the concept of para magnetism, energy stored in capacitor, energy stored in inductor as well as the rate of energy supply by the driving EMF, we can find the above quantities.

02

(a) Sketch the diagram:

Sketch the field lines through and about the material due to magnet.

03

(b) Explanation of direction of loop’s magnetic dipole moment:

For the paramagnetic material, the dipole moment μ→ is in the same direction as of B→. From the above figure, it is clear thatμ→ points in the –x direction.

04

(c) Explanation of direction of conventional current:

From the right-hand rule, since μ→points in the –x direction, the current flows counterclockwise from the perspective of the bar magnet.

05

(d) Explanation of magnetic force acting on loop:

The effect of F→ is to move the material toward regions of larger |B→| values. Force is toward left directions.

Question: Spacing in this book was generally done in units of points and picas: 12 Points = 1 pica , and 6 picas =1 inch. If a figure was misplaced in the page proofs by 0.80cm , what was the misplacement in (a) picas and (b) points?

A unit of area often used in measuring land areas is the hectare, defined as104m2. An open-pit coal mine consumes75hectares of land, down to a depth of 26m, each year. What volume of earth, in cubic kilometers, is removed in this time?

Question: Harvard Bridge, which connects MIT with its fraternities across the Charles River, has a length of 364.4 Smoots plus one ear. The unit of one Smoot is based on the length of Oliver Reed Smoot, Jr., class of 1962, who was carried or dragged length by length across the bridge so that other pledge members of the Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity could mark off (with paint) 1-Smoot lengths along the bridge. The marks have been repainted biannually by fraternity pledges since the initial measurement, usually during times of traffic congestion so that the police cannot easily interfere. (Presumably, the police were originally upset because the Smoot is not an SI base unit, but these days they seem to have accepted the unit.) Figure 1-4 shows three parallel paths, measured in Smoots (S), Willies (W), and Zeldas (Z). What is the length of 50.0 Smoots in (a) Willies and (b) Zeldas?

During heavy rain, a section of a mountainside measuring 2.5 km horizontally, 0.80 km up along the slope, and 2.0 m deep slips into a valley in a mud slide. Assume that the mud ends up uniformly distributed over a surface area of the valley measuring 0.40 km × 0.40 km and that mud has a density of. What is the mass of the mud sitting above a 4.0 m2 area of the valley floor?
