Question

2. (a) A 6.28 m wire is wrapped around 100 times into a circular coil and then placed inside a magnetic field with magnitude B-500 G. If a current of 20A passs through the wire, determine the maximum torque on the coil. A long, straight wire carries a current of 40 A. Calculate the magnetic field produced by this current at a point 10 cm perpendicular to the wire. (b) . (a) A coil with an area of 400 cm is placed in a magnetic field B-0.25 T such that the normal of the area is parallel to the field. If it took 400 ms to rotate the coil such that the normal is now in the opposite direction, find the induced voltage in the coil.

Explanation / Answer

Torque on coil T =niAxB

Where n=no of turns=100

Total length =6.28m

We have 2piR*100=6.28

2*3.14*R*100=6.28

R=6.28/628 =0.01 m

So area A=pixR² =3.14*(0.01)² =0.0031 m²

Current=i=20A

Magnetic field, B=500 G

As 1 G=0.0001T.,so 500G =0.05T

Torque =100*20*0.0031*0.05=0.31

2):as the wire is long and point is perpendicular to midpoint we have

B=magnetic field =muo°I/2piR

As mjo°=4*pi*10^-7 T

We have B=4*pi*10^-7*40/2*pi*0.10=8*10^-5 T

C) induced emf = - N (del fi)/del t

Where del fi =fi final - fi initial

And fi =B.S, i.s dot product of B(magnetic field) and S=area

As initially angle between B and S=0,because they are parallel

Fi initial=BScosx=BScos0=BS =0.25*400*10-?

Fi final, as B amd S are anti parallel x=180°

B.S=BS cos180=-BS = - 0.25*400*10^-?

Del T=400ms =400*10—³ s

Put value in above formula we get

Emf= - (-0.25*400*10^-4 - 0.25*400*10—?)/(400*10—³)

Emf = - (-200*10—?)/400*10—3

Emf =5*10—2 v
