Question: `qQuery introductory problem set 54 #'s 8-13

Explain how to determine the magnetic flux of a uniform magnetic field through a plane loop of wire, and explain how the direction of the field and the direction of a line perpendicular to the plane of the region affect the result.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: We first find the area using pi*r^2. We then take the area *strength of the field. The loop is the perpendicular to the field.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

To do this we need to simply find the area of the plane loop of wire. If we are given the radius we can find the area using

Pi * r ^2

Then we multiply the area of the loop (In square meters ) by the strength of the field (in tesla).

This will give us the strength of the flux if the plane of the loop is perpendicular to the field. If the perpendicular to the loop is at some nonzero angle with the field, then we multiply the previous result by the cosine of the angle.

Question: `qExplain how to determine the average rate of change of magnetic flux due to a uniform magnetic field through a plane loop of wire, as the loop is rotated in a given time interval from an orientation perpendicular to the magnetic field to an orientation parallel to the magnetic field.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: I think this is the same answer for the above question so: To do this we need to simply find the area of the plane loop of wire. If we are given the radius we can find the area using

Pi * r ^2

Then we multiply the area of the loop (In square meters ) by the strength of the field (in tesla).

This will give us the strength of the flux if the plane of the loop is perpendicular to the field. If the perpendicular to the loop is at some nonzero angle with the field, then we multiply the previous result by the cosine of the angle.

Given Solution:

** EXPLANATION BY STUDENT:

The first thing that we need to do is again use Pi * r ^ 2 to find the area of the loop. Then we multiply the area of the loop (m^2) by the strength of the field (testla) to find the flux when the loop is perpendicular to the field.

Then we do the same thing for when the loop is parallel to the field, and since the cos of zero degrees is zero, the flux when the loop is parallel to the field is zero. This makes sense because at this orientation the loop will pick up none of the magnetic field.

So now we have Flux 1 and Flux 2 being when the loop is perpendicular and parallel, respectively. So if we subtract Flux 2 from flux 1 and divide this value by the given time in seconds, we will have the average rate of change of magnetic flux. If we use MKS units this value will be in Tesla m^2 / sec = volts. **

Self-critique (if necessary):

I think that would be the same answer. Maybe I miss read the question.

We're trying to find an average rate of change of the flux. Your answer addresses only the calculation of one value of the flux.

Question: `qExplain how alternating current is produced by rotating a coil of wire with respect to a uniform magnetic field.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: The coil will produce no current when the coil is parallel to the magnetic field. The flux will be the strongest when it is perpendicular. The coil will then rotate between parallel and perpendicular. While at parallel there will be no flux or current. When at perpendicular the flux will be its strongest and the current will mve in 1 direction.

Given Solution:

** STUDENT RESPONSE WITH INSTRUCTOR COMMENT: Y

ou rotate a coil of wire end over end inside a uniform magnetic field. When the coil is parallel to the magnetic field, then there is no magnetic flux, and the current will be zero. But then when the coil is perpendicular to the field or at 90 degrees to the field then the flux will be strongest and the current will be moving in one direction. Then when the coil is parallel again at 180 degrees then the flux and the current will be zero. Then when the coil is perpendicular again at 270 degrees, then the flux will be at its strongest again but it will be in the opposite direction as when the coil was at 90 degrees. So therefore at 90 degrees the current will be moving in one direction and at 270 degrees the current will be moving with the same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

COMMENT:

Good. The changing magnetic flux produces voltage, which in turn produces current. **

Self-critique (if necessary):

Yea I basically said the same thing as the student. I left at what the instructor said also.

Question: `qQuery univ 25.62 (26.50 10th edition) rectangular block d x 2d x 3d, potential difference V.

To which faces should the voltage be applied to attain maximum current density and what is the density?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution: We would use R=rho*L/A=rho*3d/2d^2=3/2 rho/d so the current would be 2dV/3*rho. Then to solve for current density you would take I/A which would be ((2*d*V)/(3*rho))/(2*d^2)= 1/3*V/(rho*d). That would be for the faces measuring d*2d. For the faces the measure d*3d you would have 2/3 *rho/d for the resistance. For the current you would get 3 *d*V/(2*rho). So the current density would be ((3*d*V)/(2*rho))/(3*d^2)= ½*V/(rho*d). Then for the faces measuring 3d*2d you would get 1 / 6 rho / d for the resistance, 6 d V / (rho) for the current, and then V / (rho d) for the current density. Max current density occurs with the largest force.

confidence rating:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

.............................................

Given Solution:

** First note that the current I is different for diferent faces.

The resistance of the block is proportional to the distance between faces and inversely proportional to the area, so current is proportional to the area and inversely proportional to the distance between faces. Current density is proportional to current and inversely proportional to the area of the face, so current density is proportional to area and inversely proportional to the distance between faces and to area, leaving current inversely proportional to distance between faces.

For the faces measuring d x 2d we have resistance R = rho * L / A = rho * (3d) / (2 d^2) = 3 / 2 rho / d so current is I = V / R = V / (3/2 rho / d) = 2d V / (3 rho).

Current density is I / A = (2 d V / (3 rho) ) / (2 d^2) = V / (3 rho d) = 1/3 V / (rho d).

For the faces measuring d x 3d we have resistance R = rho * L / A = rho * (2d) / (3 d^2) = 2 / 3 rho / d so current is I = V / R = V / (2/3 rho / d) = 3 d V / (2 rho).

Current density is I / A = (3 d V / (2 rho) ) / (3 d^2) = V / (2 rho d) = 1/2 V / (rho d).

For the faces measuring 3d x 2d we have resistance R = rho * L / A = rho * (d) / (6 d^2) = 1 / 6 rho / d so current is I = V / R = V / (1/6 rho / d) = 6 d V / (rho).

Current density is I / A = (6 d V / (rho) ) / (6 d^2) = V / (rho d) = V / (rho d).

Max current density therefore occurs when the voltage is applied to the largest face. **
