Concept explainers
Imagine moving along the axis of the current-carrying loop in Fig. 27.13c, starting at a point well to the left of the loop and ending at a point well to the right of the loop. (a) How would the magnetic field strength vary as you moved along this path? (i) It would be the same at all points along the path; (ii) it would increase and then decrease; (iii) it would decrease and then increase. (b) Would the magnetic field direction vary as you moved along the path?
(c) Magnetic fields of a current-carrying loop and a current-carrying coil (solenoid)

- Show that the magnetic field at a distance r from the axis of two circular parallel plates, produced by placing charge Q(t) on the plates is Bind=02rdQ(t)dtarrow_forwardIs the work required to accelerate a rod from rest to a speed v in a magnetic field greater than the final kinetic energy of the rod? Why?arrow_forwardA circular coil of radius 5.0 cm is wound with five turns and carries a current of 5.0 A. If the coil is placed in a uniform magnetic field of strength 5.0 T, what is the maximum torque on it?arrow_forward

How much charge moves thrnugh the re while tt field is changing?arrow_forwardTwo flat, circular coils, each with a radius R and wound with JV turns, ace mounted along the same axis so that they are parallel a distance d apart. What is the magnetic field at the midpoint of the common axis if a current I flows in the same direction through each coil?arrow_forwardDoes increasing the magnitude of a uniform magnetic field through which a charge is traveling necessarily mean increasing the magnetic force on the charge? Does changing the direction of the field necessarily mean a change in the force on the charge?arrow_forward

The inner tube has inner radius o and outer radius b, and the outer tube has inner radius c and outer radius d. The tubes are then disconnected from the battery and rotated in the same direction at angular speed of radians per second about their common axis. Find the magnetic field (a) at a point inside the space enclosed by the inner tube r d.

An electron, originally traveling perpendicular to the boundary plane, passes into the region of the field.
