Get started for freeAlthough 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 moving in a uniform magnetic field with experiences force . A second proton with experiences in the same field. What is ? Give your answer as a magnitude and an angle measured from the- axis.
A Hall-effect probe to measure magnetic field strengths needs to be calibrated in a known magnetic field. Although it is not easy to do, magnetic fields can be precisely measured by measuring the cyclotron frequency of protons. A testing laboratory adjusts a magnetic field until the proton's cyclotron frequency is . At this field strength, the Hall voltage on the probe iswhen the current through the probe is. Later, when an unknown magnetic field is measured, the Hall voltage at the same current is. What is the strength of this magnetic field?
a. Derive an expression for the magnetic field strength at distance d from the center of a straight wire of finite length l that carries current I.
b. Determine the field strength at the center of a current carrying square loop having sides of length 2R.
c. Compare your answer to part b to the field at the center of a circular loop of diameter 2R. Do so by computing the ratio .
You have a horizontal cathode-ray tube (CRT) for which the controls have been adjusted such that the electron beam should make a single spot of light exactly in the center of the screen. You observe, however, that the spot is deflected to the right. It is possible that the CRT is broken. But as a clever scientist, you realize that your laboratory might be in either an electric or a magnetic field. Assuming that you do not have a compass, any magnets, or any charged rods, how can you use the CRT itself to determine whether the CRT is broken, is in an electric field, or is in a magnetic field? You cannot remove the CRT from the room.
