The value of the line integral of Baround the closed path in FIGURE EX29.23 is 1.38×10-5T.m. What are the direction (in or out of the page) and magnitude of I3?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The current I3=23Aand it is points into the paper.

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We have given,

line integral =1.38×10-5T.m

We have to find the current I3and its flow of direction.

02

Simplify

Using ampere's law, for any closed path is given by,

B.dS=μ0I

Where I is a total enclosed current in the magnetic field curve.

then total current will be

I=I2+I3I=-12A+I3.......................(1)

since other currents are out of closed curve.

since,

B.dS=μ0IB.dS=(4π×10-7T.m/A)II=B.dS4π×10-7=1.38×10-5T.m4×3.14×10-7T.m/AI=11A

using equation (1),

localid="1649421657359" I=11A=-12A+I3I3=23A.

the positive sine indicates that current will be into the paper.

A 2.5-m-long, 2.0-mm-diameter aluminum wire has a potential difference of 1.5V between its ends. Consider an electron halfway between the center of the wire and the surface that is moving parallel to the wire at the drift speed. What is the ratio of the electric force on the electron to the magnetic force on the electron?

A long wire carrying a 5.0A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis atx=-2.0cm. A second, parallel wire carrying a 3.0A current intersects the x-axis at x=+2.0cm. At what point or points on the x-axis is the magnetic field zero if

(a) the two currents are in the same direction and

(b) the two currents are in opposite directions?

Magnetic resonance imaging needs a magnetic field strength of 1.5 T. The solenoid is 1.8 m long and 75 cm in diameter. It is tightly wound with a single layer of 2.0-mm-diameter superconducting wire. What size current is needed?

a. A 65-cm-diameter cyclotron uses a 500Voscillating potential difference between the Dees. What is the maximum kinetic energy of a proton if the magnetic field strength is 0.75T?

b. How many revolutions does the proton make before leaving the cyclotron?

The earth’s magnetic field, with a magnetic dipole moment of 8.0×1022Am2, is generated by currents within the molten iron of the earth’s outer core. Suppose we model the core current as a 3000km-diameter current loop made from a 1000-km-diameter “wire.” The loop diameter is measured from the centers of this very fat wire.

a. What is the current in the current loop?

b. What is the current density J in the current loop?

c. To decide whether this is a large or a small current density, compare it to the current density of a 1.0A current in a 1.0mm-diameter wire.
