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 .

In the circuit shown in Fig. E26.47 each capacitor initially has a charge of magnitude 3.50 nC on its plates. After the switch S is closed, what will be the current in the circuit at the instant that the capacitors have lost 80.0% of their initial stored energy?

Lightning Strikes. During lightning strikes from a cloud to the

ground, currents as high as 25,000 A can occur and last for about 40 ms.

How much charge is transferred from the cloud to the earth during such a

strike?

In the circuit shown in Fig. E26.18,ε=36.V,R1=4.0Ω,R2=6.0Ω,R3=3.0Ω(a) What is the potential difference Vab between points a and b when the switch S is open and when S is closed? (b) For each resistor, calculate the current through the resistor with S open and with S closed. For each resistor, does the current increase or decrease when S is closed?

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.

A light bulb glows because it has resistance. The brightness of a light bulb increases with the electrical power dissipated in the bulb. (a) In the circuit shown in Fig. Q25.14a, the two bulbs A and B are identical. Compared to bulb A, does bulb B glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning. (b) Bulb B is removed from the circuit and the circuit is completed as shown in Fig. Q25.14b. Compared to the brightness of bulb A in Fig. Q25.14a, does bulb A now glow more brightly, just as brightly, or less brightly? Explain your reasoning
