(a) The magnitude of the magnetic flux is3.05×10-3T.m2through this circle due to a uniform magnetic fieldB=0.230Tin the direction of +Zdirection.

(b)The magnitude of the magnetic flux is1.83×10-3T.m3through this circle due to a uniform magnetic field B=0.230Tat an angle of from the +Zdirection.

(c) The magnitude of the magnetic flux is zero through this circle due to a uniform magnetic fieldB=0.230Tin the +Zdirection.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of flux

The term flux may be defined as the specified physical medium having presence of force field

02

Determine magnitude of the magnetic flux in direction

The magnetic flux can be calculated as


fB=B×dAfB=BdAcosθfB=BAcos0fB=BAfB=πR2B

Here R is the radius of circle and B is the magnetic field.

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

fB=π6.50×10-2m20.230TfB=3.05-3T.m2

Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic flux is3.05-3T.m2through this circle due to a uniform magnetic field B=0.230T/in the direction of direction.

03

Determine magnitude of the magnetic flux at an angle of from the direction.

The magnetic flux can be calculated as

fB=B×dAfB=BdAcosθfB=BAcos53.1°fB=πR2cos53.1°

Here R is the radius of circle and B is the magnetic field.

Substitute all the value in the above equation.

fB=π6.50×10-2m0.250Tcos53.1°fB=1.83×10-3T.m2

Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic flux is1.83×10-3T.m2 through this circle due to a uniform magnetic fieldB=0.230T at an angle of 53.1°from the+y direction.

04

Determine the magnitude of the magnetic flux in the+ydirection

The magnetic flux can be calculated as


fB=B×dAfB=BdAcosθfB=BAcos90°fB=0

Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic flux is zero through this circle due to a uniform magnetic fieldB=0.230Tin the +ydirection.

BIO The average bulk resistivity of the human body (apart from surface resistance of the skin) is about 5.0Ω·m. The conducting path between the hands can be represented approximately as a cylinder 1.6 m long and 0.10 m in diameter. The skin resistance can be made negligible bysoaking the hands in salt water. (a) What is the resistance between the hands if the skin resistance is negligible? (b) What potential difference between thehands is needed for a lethal shock current of 100 mA ? (Note that your result shows that small potential differences produce dangerous currents when the skin is damp.) (c) With the current in part (b),what power is dissipated in the body?

The potential difference across the terminals of a battery is 8.40 V when there is a current of 1.50 A in the battery from the negative to the positive terminal. When the current is 3.50 A in the reverse direction, the potential difference becomes10.20 V . (a) What is the internal resistance of the battery? (b) What is the emf of the battery?
