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 .

You want to produce three 1.00-mm-diameter cylindrical wires,

each with a resistance of 1.00 Ω at room temperature. One wire is gold, one

is copper, and one is aluminum. Refer to Table 25.1 for the resistivity

values. (a) What will be the length of each wire? (b) Gold has a density of1.93×10-4kgm3.

What will be the mass of the gold wire? If you consider the current price of gold, is

this wire very expensive?

An open plastic soda bottle with an opening diameter of 2.5cmis placed on a table. A uniform 1.75-Tmagnetic field directed upward and oriented25° from the vertical encompasses the bottle. What is the total magnetic flux through the plastic of the soda bottle?

Question: A conducting sphere is placed between two charged parallel plates such as those shown in Figure. Does the electric field inside the sphere depend on precisely where between the plates the sphere is placed? What about the electric potential inside the sphere? Do the answers to these questions depend on whether or not there is a net charge on the sphere? Explain your reasoning.

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?

In a cyclotron, the orbital radius of protons with energy 300keVis 16.0cm. You are redesigning the cyclotron to be used instead for alpha particles with energy 300keV. An alpha particle has chargeq=+2e and mass m=6.64×10-27kg. If the magnetic filed isn't changed, what will be the orbital radius of the alpha particles?
