Get started for freeYour employer asks you to build a -cm-long solenoid with an interior field of . The specifications call for a single layer of wire, wound with the coils as close together as possible. You have two spools of wire available. Wire with a gauge has a diameter of and has a maximum current rating of . Wire with a gauge is in diameter and can carry up to . Which wire should you use, and what current will you need?
An electron moves in the magnetic field with a speed of in the directions shown in FIGURE EX29.27. For each, what is magnetic force on the electron? Give your answers in component form.
Although the evidence is weak, there has been concern in recent years over possible health effects from the magnetic fields generated by electric transmission lines. A typical high-voltage transmission line is above the ground and carries a current at a potential of .
a. What is the magnetic field strength on the ground directly under such a transmission line?
b. What percentage is this of the earth’s magnetic field of ?
A proton in a cyclotron gains of kinetic energy per revolution, where is the potential between the dees. Although the energy gain comes in small pulses, the proton makes so many revolutions that it is reasonable to model the energy as increasing at the constant rate , where is the period of the cyclotron motion. This is power input because it is a rate of increase of energy.
a. Find an expression for , the radius of a proton's orbit in a cyclotron, in terms of . Assume that at .
Hint:Start by finding an expression for the proton's kinetic energy in terms of .
b. A relatively small cyclotron is in diameter, uses a magnetic field, and has a potential difference between the dees. What is the power input to a proton, in ?
c. How long does it take a proton to spiral from the center out to the edge?
The toroid of is a coil of wire wrapped around a doughnut-shaped ring (a torus). Toroidal magnetic fields are used to confine fusion plasmas.
a. From symmetry, what must be the shape of the magnetic field in this toroid? Explain.
b. Consider a toroid with N closely spaced turns carrying current I. Use Ampère’s law to find an expression for the magnetic field strength at a point inside the torus at distance r from the axis.
c. Is a toroidal magnetic field a uniform field? Explain.
