- Review. In Figure P30.42, a uniform magnetic field decreases at a constant rate dB/dt = K, where K is a positive constant. A circular loop of wire of radius a containing a resistance R and a capacitance C is placed with its plane normal to the field. (a) Find the charge Q on the capacitor when it is fully charged. (b) Which plate, upper or lower, is at the higher potential? (c) Discuss the force that causes the separation of charges. Figure P30.42arrow_forwardA circular coil with 200 turns Las a radius of 2.0 cm. (a) What current through tire coil results in a magnetic dipole moment of 3.0 Am2? (b) What is the maximum torque that the coil will experience in a uniform field of strength 5.0102 ? (c) If tire angle between and B is 45°, what is the magnitude of tire torque on the coil? (d) What is the magnetic potential energy of coil for this orientation?arrow_forwardConsider the system pictured in Figure P28.26. A 15.0-cm horizontal wire of mass 15.0 g is placed between two thin, vertical conductors, and a uniform magnetic field acts perpendicular to the page. The wire is free to move vertically without friction on the two vertical conductors. When a 5.00-A current is directed as shown in the figure, the horizontal wire moves upward at constant velocity in the presence of gravity. (a) What forces act on the horizontal wire, and (b) under what condition is the wire able to move upward at constant velocity? (c) Find the magnitude and direction of the minimum magnetic Field required to move the wire at constant speed. (d) What happens if the magnetic field exceeds this minimum value?

- A Figure P32.74 shows an N-turn rectangular coil of length a and width b entering a region of uniform magnetic field of magnitude Bout directed out of the page. The velocity of the coil is constant and is upward in the figure. The total resistance of the coil is R. What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on the coil a. when only a portion of the coil has entered the region with the field, b. when the coil is completely embedded in the field, and c. as the coil begins to exit the region with the field?arrow_forwardFigure P30.41 shows a compact, circular coil with 220 turns and radius 12.0 cm immersed in a uniform magnetic field parallel to the axis of the coil. The rate of change of the field has the constant magnitude 20.0 mT/s. (a) What additional information is necessary to determine whether the coil is carrying clockwise or counterclockwise current? (b) The coil overheats if more than 160 W of power is delivered to it. What resistance would the coil have at this critical point? (c) To run cooler, should it have lower resistance or higher resistance? Figure P30.41arrow_forwardThe square armature coil of an alternating current generator has 200 turns and is 20.0 cm on side. When it rotates at 3600 rpm, its peak output voltage is 120 V. (a) Wliat is the frequency' of the output voltage? (b) What is the strength of the magnetic field in which the coil is turning?arrow_forward
