If a current is suddenly set up in loop a, is there also a current in loop b, if yes, direction of the current and the direction of the force that is exerted on loop b by loop a.
Answer to Problem 1QAP
There will be current in loop b in clockwise direction
Force exerted by the loop a on loop b will be downward in direction
Explanation of Solution
Given info:
Current is suddenly set up in loop a
Concept Explanation:
When a current start to flow on loop a, changing magnetic field is created to upward direction. According to the Lenz law due to this changing magnetic field a current is induced in loop b. This current is induced in a way that resulting magnetic field due to this current opposes the magnetic field produced by loop a. Therefore, the current that flows on loop b will be the opposite direction to the current flows on loop a. Currents flows in opposite directions producing a magnetic force downwards.
Conclusion:
There will be current in loop b in clockwise direction
Force exerted by the loop a on loop b will be downward in direction

(a) What direction must the current I2 in the straight wire have to create a field at the center of the loop in the direction opposite to that created by the loop?

- A wire loop with a resistance, R = 0.174 Ohms is pulled to the right out of a region with a uniform magnetic field B = 0.468 T that points out of the screen as shown in the diagram below. As is moves, out of the field region, a current is induced, because of the current, there is a magnetic force on the loop. How much force (magnitude only) is required to keep the loop moving at a constant speed of v = 17.0 m/s? The height of the loop, L = 0.189 m.

Their coils have the same number of turns per unit length andinitially both carry no current. At the same instant currents start increasing linearly with time in both solenoids. At any moment the current flowing in the inner coil is twice as large as that in the outer one and their directions are the same. As a result of the increasing currents a charged particle, initially at rest between the solenoids, starts moving along a circular trajectory (see figure). What is the radius r of the circle? Hint: Consider not only the magnetic field and magnetic forces acting on the charged particle, but also the effects of the induced electric fieldarrow_forward
