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:

First we find the area of the loop of wire using,

A= pi*r^2

Next we need to find flux by multiplying that area by the strength of the field

Flux= A*Strength

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

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:

Find area

A=`pi*r^2

Next find flux

Flux1= A*Strength

Flux2= 0 because the cosine of zero degrees is zero.

We need to subtract Flux2 from Flux1 and divide by the time in seconds to get the average rate of change of magnetic flux.

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. **

Question: `qQuery Principles and General College Physics 18.04. 120V toaster with 4.2 amp current. What is the resistance?

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

Current= Voltage/ Resistance

We manipulate this equation to find resistance

Resistance= Voltage/Current

R= 120V/ 4.2 amp

R= 29 ohms

confidence rating:

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

3

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

Given Solution:

current = voltage / resistance (Ohm's Law). The common sense of this is that for a given voltage, less resistance implies greater current while for given resistance, greater voltage implies greater current. More specifically, current is directly proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance. In symbols this relationship is expressed as I = V / R.

In this case we know the current and the voltage and wish to find the resistance. Simple algebra gives us R = V / I. Substituting our known current and voltage we obtain

R = 120 volts / 4.2 amps = 29 ohms, approximately.

Question: `qQuery Principles and General College Physics 18.28. Max instantaneous voltage to a 2.7 kOhm resistor rated at 1/4 watt.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

Power= voltage*current and Current= voltage/resistance so

Power= V*(V/R)

P= V^2/R

We need to find voltage so the equation becomes

V= sqrt(Power*R)

Because the max voltage can only produce ¼ watt max power, the equation then becomes

V= sqrt(1/4watt* 2.7*10^3 ohms)

V= 26 Volts

confidence rating:

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

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

Given Solution:

Voltage is energy per unit of charge, measured in Joules / Coulomb.

Current is charge / unit of time, measured in amps or Coulombs / second.

Power is energy / unit of time measured in Joules / second.

The three are related in a way that is obvious from the meanings of the terms. If we multiply Joules / Coulomb by Coulombs / second we get Joules / second, so voltage * current = power. In symbols this is power = V * I.

Ohm's Law tells us that current = voltage / resistance.In symbols this is I = V / R. So our power relationship power = V * I can be written

power = V * V / R = V^2 / R.

Using this relationship we find that

V = sqrt(power * R), so in this case the maximum voltage (which will produce the 1/4 watt maximum power) will be

V = sqrt(1/4 watt * 2.7 * 10^3 ohms) = 26 volts.

Question: `qQuery general college physics problem 18.39; compare power loss if 520 kW delivered at 50kV as opposed to 12 kV thru 3 ohm resistance.** The current will not be the same at both voltages.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Your Solution:

confidence rating:

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

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

Given Solution:

It is important to understand that power (J / s) is the product of current (C / s) and voltage (J / C).

So the current at 50 kV kW will be less than 1/4 the current at 12 kV.

To deliver 520 kW = 520,000 J / s at 50 kV = 50,000 J / C requires current I = 520,000 J/s / (50,000 J/C) = 10.4 amps. This demonstrates the meaning of the formula P = I V.

To deliver 520 kW = 520,000 J / s at 12 kV = 12,000 J / C requires current I = 520,000 J/s / (12,000 J/C) = 43.3 amps.

The voltage drops through the 3 Ohm resistance will be calculated as the product of the current and the resistance, V = I * R:

The 10.4 amp current will result in a voltage drop of 10.4 amp * 3 ohms = 31.2 volts.

The 43.3 amp current will result in a voltage drop of 40.3 amp * 3 ohms = 130 volts.

The power loss through the transmission wire is the product of the voltage ( J / C ) and the current (J / S) so we obtain power losses as follows:

At 520 kV the power loss is 31.2 J / C * 10.4 C / s = 325 watts, approx. At 12 kV the power loss is 130 J / C * 43.3 C / s = 6500 watts, approx.

Note that the power loss in the transmission wire is not equal to the power delivered by the circuit, which is lost through a number of parallel connections to individual homes, businesses, etc..

The entire analysis can be done by simple formulas but without completely understanding the meaning of voltage, current, resistance, power and their relationships it is very easy to get the wrong quantities in the wrong places, and especially to confuse the power delivered with the power loss.

The analysis boils down to this:

I = P / V, where P is the power delivered. Ploss = I^2 R, where R is the resistance of the circuit and Ploss is the power loss of the circuit.

So Ploss = I^2 * R = (P/V)^2 * R = P^2 * R / V^2.

This shows that power loss across a fixed resistance is inversely proportional to square of the voltage. So that the final voltage, which is less than 1/4 the original voltage, implies more than 16 times the power loss.

A quicker solution through proportionalities:

For any given resistance power loss is proportional to the square of the current.

For given power delivery current is inversely proportional to voltage.

So power loss is proportional to the inverse square of the voltage.

In this case the voltage ratio is 50 kV / (12 kV) = 4.17 approx., so the ratio of power losses is about 1 / 4.17^2 = 1 / 16.5 = .06.

Note that this is the same approximate ratio you would get if you divided your 324.5 watts by 5624.7 watts. **
