Calculate the mag-netic field (magnitude and direc-tion) at a point p due to a current i=12.0 a in the wire shown in fig. p28.68. segment bc is an arc of a circle with radius 30.0 cm, and point p is at the center of cur- vature of the arc. segment dais an arc of a circle with radius 20.0 cm, and point p is at its cen- ter of curvature. segments cd and ab are straight lines of length 10.0 cm each

Complete Question

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

The magnitude is $B= 4.2 *10^ {-6}T$ , the direction is into the page

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The current is i = 12.0 A

The radius of arc bc is $r_{bc} = 30.0 \ cm =\frac{30}{100} = 0.3m$

The radius of arc da is $r_{da} = 20.0 \ cm = \frac{20}{100} = 0.20 \ m$

The length of segment cd and ab is = $l = 10cm = \frac{10}{100} = 0.10 m$

The objective of the solution is to obtain the magnetic field

Generally magnetic due to the current flowing in the arc is mathematically represented as

$B = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r}$

Here I is the current

$\mu_o$ is the permeability of free space with a value of $4\pi *10^{-7}T \cdot m/A$

r is the distance

Considering Arc da

$B_{da} = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r_{da}} \theta$

Where $\theta$ is the angle the arc da makes with the center from the diagram its value is $\theta = 120^o = 120^o * \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{2\pi}{3} rad$

Now substituting values into formula for magnetic field for da

$B_{da} = \frac{4\p *10^{-7} * 12}{4 \pi (0.20)}[\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]$

$= \frac{10^{-7} * 12}{0.20} * [\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]$

$B_{da}= 12.56*10^{-6} T$

Looking at the diagram to obtain the direction of the current and using right hand rule then we would obtain the the direction of magnetic field due to da is into the pages of the paper

Considering Arc bc

$B_{bc} = \frac{\mu_o I}{4 \pi r_{bc}} \theta$

Substituting value

$B_{bc} = \frac{4 \pi *10^{-7} * 12}{4 \pi (0.30)} [\frac{2 \pi}{3} ]$

$B_{bc}= 8.37*10^{-6}T$

Looking at the diagram to obtain the direction of the current and using right hand rule then we would obtain the the direction of magnetic field due to bc is out of the pages of the paper

Since the line joining P to segment bc and da makes angle = 0°

Then the net magnetic field would be

$B = B_{da} - B{bc}$

$= 12.56*10^{-6} - 8.37*10^{-6}$

$= 4.2 *10^ {-6}T$

Since $B_{da} B_{bc}$ then the direction of the net charge would be into the page

Search coils and credit cards. one practical way to measure magnetic field strength uses a small, closely wound coil called a search coil. the coil is initially held with its plane perpendicular to a magnetic field. the coil is then either quickly rotated a quarter-turn about a diameter or quickly pulled out of the field. (a) derive the equation relating the total charge q that flows through a search coil to the magnetic-field magnitude b. the search coil has n turns, each with area a, and the flux through the coil is decreased from its initial maximum value to zero in a time ∆t. the resistance of the coil is r, and the total charge is q = i∆t, where i is the average current induced by the change in flux. (b) in a credit card reader, the magnetic strip on the back of a credit card is rapidly “swiped” past a coil within the reader. explain, using the same ideas that underlie the operation of a search coil, how the reader can decode the information stored in the pattern of magnetization on the strip. (c) is it necessary that the credit card be “swiped” through the reader at exactly the right speed? why or why not?
