FIGURE 27.35 For Thought and Discussion 1
The direction of the induced current in the ring.
Answer to Problem 1FTD
The direction of the induced current in the ring is shown in Figure 1.
Explanation of Solution
According to the Lenz’s law, the induced current in the ring will produce a magnetic field, which will oppose the change in flux in the ring. Since the south pole of the bar magnet is pushed towards the conducting ring, the ring will produce a magnetic field, which opposes the change in flux due to the magnet. Thus by applying the right-hand rule gives the direction of current flow through the ring as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1
Conclusion:
Therefore, the direction of the induced current in the ring is shown in Figure 1.

- Consider 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?

Why isn’t it normally useful for calculating a magnetic field?arrow_forwardA toroid has a major radius R and a minor radius r and is tightly wound with N turns of wire on a hollow cardboard torus. Figure P31.6 shows half of this toroid, allowing us to see its cross section. If R r, the magnetic field in the region enclosed by the wire is essentially the same as the magnetic field of a solenoid that has been bent into a large circle of radius R.
