Chapter 30, Problem 17P
You are working for a company that manufactures motors and generators. At the end of your first day of work, your supervisor explains to you that you will be assigned to a team that is designing a new homopolar generator. You have no idea what that is, but agree wholeheartedly to the assignment. At home that evening, you go online to learn about the homopolar generator and find the following. The homopolar generator, also called the Faraday disk, is a low-voltage, high-current electric generator. It consists of a rotating

You are on a development team investigating a new design for computer magnetic disk drives. You have been asked to determine if the standard disk drive motor will be sufficient for the test version of the new disk. To do this you decide to calculate how much energy is needed to get the 6.4 cm diameter, 15 gram disk to its operating speed of 350 revolutions per second. The test disk also has 4 different sensors attached to its surface. These small sensors are arranged at the corners of a square with sides of 1.2 cm. To assure stability, the center of mass of the sensor array is in the same position as the center of mass of the disk. The disk’s axis of rotation also goes through the center of mass. You know that the sensors have masses of 1.0 grams, 1.5 grams, 2.0 grams, and 3.0 grams. The moment of inertia of your disk is one-half that of a ring.
A physics lab instructor is working on a new demonstration. She attaches two identical conducting balls with mass
m = 0.190 g
to threads of length L as shown in the figure.
There are two strings in the figure. The top of each string is connected to the ceiling, and both strings are connected at the same point. The bottom of each string is connected to a spherical mass labeled m. Both strings have length Land hang at an angle of θto the vertical, with the two strings on opposite sides of the vertical.
Both balls have the same charge of 7.60 nC, and are in static equilibrium when θ = 4.55°. What is L (in m)? Assume the threads are massless.
Draw a free-body diagram, apply Newton's second law for a particle in equilibrium to one of the balls. Find an equation for the distance between the two balls in terms of L and θ, and use this expression in your Coulomb force equation. m

What If? The charge on both balls is increased until each thread makes an angle of θ = 9.10° with the…

- Blocks 1 and 2, with masses M1=0.50 kg and M2=1.5 kg, are connected by an ideal string, which passes over a pulley without slipping (see figure). The magnitudes of the wire voltages applied to blocks 1 and 2 are represented, respectively, by T1 and T2. Consider T2>T1. In this case, the pulley rotates counterclockwise. The pulley has radius R=0.46 m and rotates around an axis perpendicular to its surface passing through its CM. The CM of the pulley coincides with its center. The moment of inertia of the pulley with respect to the axis of rotation is denoted by I and the acceleration of the blocks has magnitude 0.025 m/s2. Use g=10 m/s2. Determine I (in kg⋅m2).

What is the change in magnetic flux through the loop when it rotates from a position where its area vector makes an angle of 30° with the field to a position where the area vector is parallel to the field? The loop rotates from a position where its area vector makes an angle of 30° with the field to a position where the area vector is parallel to the field in 56.3 ms. What is the induced current through the light bulb? This square loop is rotated with a frequency of 60 Hz within a uniform magnetic field of 454 mT.
