- Two infinitely long current-carrying wires run parallel in the xy plane and are each a distance d = 11.0 cm from the y axis (Fig. P30.83). The current in both wires is I = 5.00 A in the negative y direction. a. Draw a sketch of the magnetic field pattern in the xz plane due to the two wires. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field due to the two wires b. at the origin and c. as a function of z along the z axis, at x = y = 0? FIGURE P30.83arrow_forwardThe Hall effect finds important application in the electronics industry. It is used to find the sign and density of the carriers of electric current in semiconductor chips. The arrangement is shown in Figure P22.66. A semiconducting block of thickness t and width d carries a current I in the x direction. A uniform magnetic field B is applied in the y direction. If the charge carriers are positive, the magnetic force deflects them in the z direction. Positive charge accumulates on the top surface of the sample and negative charge on the bottom surface, creating a downward electric field. In equilibrium, the downward electric force on the charge carriers balances the upward magnetic force and the carriers move through the sample without deflection. The Hall voltage ΔVH = Vc − Va between the top and bottom surfaces is measured, and the density of the charge carriers can be calculated from it. (a) Demonstrate that if the charge carriers are negative the Hall voltage will be negative. Hence, the Hall effect reveals the sign of the charge carriers, so the sample can be classified as p-type (with positive majority charge carriers) or n-type (with negative). (b) Determine the number of charge carriers per unit volume n in terms of I, t, B, ΔVH, and the magnitude q of the carrier charge. Figure P22.66arrow_forwardWhy is the following situation impossible? Figure P28.46 shows an experimental technique for altering the direction of travel for a charged particle. A particle of charge q = 1.00 C and mass m = 2.00 1015 kg enters the bottom of the region of uniform magnetic field at speed = 2.00 105 m/s, with a velocity vector perpendicular to the field lines. The magnetic force on the particle causes its direction of travel to change so that it leaves the region of the magnetic field at the top traveling at an angle from its original direction. The magnetic field has magnitude B = 0.400 T and is directed out of the page. The length h of the magnetic field region is 0.110 m. An experimenter performs the technique and measures the angle at which the particles exit the top of the field. She finds that the angles of deviation are exactly as predicted.

- A circular coil 15.0 cm in radius and composed of 145 tightly wound turns carries a current of 2.50 A in the counterclockwise direction, where the plane of the coil makes an angle of 15.0 with the y axis (Fig. P30.73). The coil is free to rotate about the z axis and is placed in a region with a uniform magnetic field given by B=1.35jT. a. What is the magnitude of the magnetic torque on the coil? b. In what direction will the coil rotate? FIGURE P30.73arrow_forwardIn Figure P22.43, the current in the long, straight wire is I1 = 5.00 A and the wire lies in the plane of the rectangular loop, which carries a current I2 = 10.0 A. The dimensions in the figure are c = 0.100 m, a = 0.150 m, and = 0.450 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the net force exerted on the loop by the magnetic field created by the wire.

One wire is parallel to the z axis and the other wire is parallel to the x axis as shown. Find an expression for the magnetic field at the origin.arrow_forward
- 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? (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? Figure P28.26arrow_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. Modeling the field as the uniform field of a long solenoid, show that the inductance of such a toroid is approximately L=120N2r2R Figure P31.6arrow_forwardA magnetic field directed into the page changes with time according to B = 0.030 0t2 + 1.40, where B is in teslas and t is in seconds. The field has a circular cross section of radius R = 2.50 cm (see Fig. P23.28). When t = 3.00 s and r2 = 0.020 0 m, what are (a) the magnitude and (b) the direction of the electric field at point P2?arrow_forward
