Repeat Exercise 28.43 for the case in which the current in the central, solid conductor is , the current in the tube is , and these currents are in the same direction rather than in opposite directions.

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but at inside the tube isB=μ0I12πr .

(b) The magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but at outside the tube isB=μ0I1+I22πr .

Step by step solution

01

Definition of magnetic field

The term magnetic field may be defined as the area around the magnet behaving like a magnet.

02

Determine the magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but at inside the tube and at points outside the central, solid conductor but at outside the tube

a)

Using ampere’s law to a circular path of radius:

Bdl=BIBdl=B(2πr)

But the enclosed current isIencl=I1

Bdl=μ0lendB(2πr)=μ0l1B=μ0l12πr

Hence, the magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but at inside the tube isB=μ0l12πr. .

b)

Now the magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but outside the tube is calculated as:

The enclosed current is the sum of two currents, so,

Iend=I1+I2

So, the magnetic field can be calculated as:

B=μ0I1+I22πr

Hence, the magnetic field at points outside the central, solid conductor but at outside the tube isB=μ0I1+I22πr .

Batteries are always labeled with their emf; for instances an AA flashlight battery is labelled “ 1.5 V ”. Would it also be appropriate to put a label on batteries starting how much current they provide? Why or why not?

An alpha particle (a He nucleus containing two protons and two neutrons and having a mass of 6.64×10-7kg) travelling horizontally at 35.6km/senter a uniform, vertical,1.80-T magnetic field.(a) What is the diameter of the path followed by this alpha particle? (b) what effect does the magnetic field have on the speed of the particle? (c) What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the alpha particle while it is in the magnetic field? (d) explain why the speed of the particle does not change even though an unbalanced external force acts on it.

A fuse is a device designed to break a circuit, usually by melting when the current exceeds a certain value. What characteristics should the material of the fuse have?

The heating element of an electric dryer is rated at 4.1 kW when connected to a 240-V line. (a) What is the current in the heating element? Is 12-gauge wire large enough to supply this current? (b) What is the resistance of the dryer’s heating element at its operating temperature? (c) At 11 cents per kWh, how much does it cost per hour to operate the dryer?

If a “75-W” bulb (see Problem 25.35) is connected across a 220-V potential difference (as is used in Europe), how much power does it dissipate? Ignore the temperature dependence of the bulb’s resistance.
