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. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): I did not give specific units. Area should be in M^2 and strength should be in telsa. In addition, I didn’t consider a non zero angle in which we would multiply by the cos of the angle. Self-critique rating: 3 ********************************************* 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: We again just have to find the different flux. First we find the area of the perpendicular field by taking pi(r^2) then we multiply this by the strength to get flux. We do the same for the parallel loop. In this case, the angle is 0, so we take cos(0)*area which will result in a value of 0. This means that the flux is decreasing You can find the rate of change by taking 0-A1(S1) to get the difference and then divide by the time interval. This will give you the rate of change of flux. Confidence rating: 2

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): The given solution gives units of Tesla m^2/sec=volts. So would the units then be volts?

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): Voltage produces current Self-critique rating: 3 ********************************************* Question: `qQuery Principles and General College Physics 18.04. 120V toaster with 4.2 amp current. What is the resistance? YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY Your Solution: To solve this you would use Ohms law which states that current=voltage/resistance. Therefore we have 4.2Amp=120V/resistance. Therefore R=120V/4.2amps. Solving this gives 28.6 ohms of resistance. 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. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating: OK ********************************************* 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: We need to incorporate the power equation which is, P=V^2/R, Therefore V=sqroot(P*R) V=sqroot(.25watts*2700ohm) Which gives voltage of 27V. Confidence rating: 3
.............................................
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. &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): OK Self-critique rating: OK ********************************************* 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: Current=voltage/resistance We need to find resistance in both. For the first we have 520,000watts=50,000V^2/R R=.10 ohms Therefore we solve for current which would be I=V*R which is 5,000amps Next we solve for the second example which gives 12,000V and 3ohms, therefore current will be 36,000 amps. 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. ** &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Self-critique (if necessary): I made a few major errors, but the solution makes sense.
