Magnetic field Definition and 1000 Threads

Okay, so, the magnetic field lying(parallel) to the plane of the coil is confusing me quite a bit. Usually, in this kind of problem, we have a magnetic field directed perpendicularly to the plane. Considering this orientation of the field, wouldn't the torque on this sort of "elementary brush...

When the mass starts sliding down, it will induce a current due to the cutting of B field. By fleming right-hand rule, the B field points into the field, charge going in the direction down the ramp (current pointing down the ramp?), therefore the force should be in the same direction of normal...

$$B = \frac {\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r} $$ By Right-hand Grip Rule, the direction of the magnetic field by wire in y-axis is into the paper (z) while the direction of the magnetic field by wire in X-axis is upwards (+i) The answer state the Magnetic field is in the (i - y) direction though. Next...

Homework Statement:: The magnetic field at every point on the path of integration Relevant Equations:: The scenarios/situations are shown in the attached photo. "Any conductors present that are not enclosed by a particular path may still contribute to the value of B field at every point, but...

hi guys this seems like a simple problem but i am stuck reaching the final form as requested , the question is given the magnetic vector potential $$\vec{A} = \frac{\hat{\rho}}{\rho}\beta e^{[-kz+\frac{i\omega}{c}(nz-ct)]}$$ prove that $$B = (n/c + ik/\omega)(\hat{z}×\vec{E})$$ simple enough i...

I am trying to design an electromagnet which consists of a copper PVC sheathed wire wound around a cylindrical plastic spool of Circumference (C) = pi x diameter. The spool has a hollow body of diameter D1. This wire has maximum length (L), cross sectional area A, resistivity P. The spool once...

The Lorentz's force acting on a charged particle perpendicularly "hitting" a magnetic field will be directed upwards, and generally directed towards the center of the circumference traveled by this particle, and so will cause a centripetal acceleration to keep it in a circular motion. By...

I know the answer is ##ka^3/2##. I got ##ka^2## and I don't know how to get the right answer. I saw an explanation using integrals, but my class is algebra-based. My attempt: ##Flux=ABcos\theta##. I figure ##cos\theta## is 1 becuase the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the...

Hello there, I've worked through this problem and I would just like to check whether I've understood it correctly. I found ##\vec H##, ##\vec B## and ##\vec M## using Ampere's Law and the above relations as I would for any thin current carrying wire and these were my answers: $$\vec H = \frac I...

If ##\tau= 0.0727, N=60, i=1.3, B=1.0,## and ##\theta=15##, I tried the following calculation: ##\tau=NIABsin\theta## ##\tau=NIs^2Bsin\theta## ##s^2=\frac {\tau} {NIBsin\theta}=\frac {.0727} {60*1.3*1*sin(15)}=0.0632 m=6.32 cm## The answer is probably right in front of me, but I don't know what...

In the picture below, the direction of the magnetic field lines can be determined by using the right-hand rule with the thumb pointing in the direction of the current. If we use the right hand rule in the picture below, thinking of the yellow arrow as the current, we would not get the correct...

Summary:: I am trying to derive that the divergence of a magnetic field is 0. One of the moves is to take the curl out of an integral. Can someone prove that this is addressable Biot Savart's law is $$B(r)=\frac{\mu _0}{4\pi} \int \frac{I(r') \times (r-r')}{|r-r|^3}dl'=\frac{\mu _0}{4\pi}...

I am analyzing the rotor magnetic field, i feel i understand the basic concept but have few clarifications. At pt1, the net mmf due to currents ##i_a = i_{max}; i_b = -\frac{i_{max}} 2 ; i_c = -\frac{i_{max}} 2## is ##\frac {3F_{max}} 2## Similarly i can do for Pt2. But my confusion is the...

My answer will be no for both (a) and (b) because there is no change in magnetic flux experienced by the circular coil. Am I correct? Thanks

Hello, I am looking for some information on how 2 different types of magnetic fields interfere with each other. And i don't mean, 2 magnets, but let me be specifically: Lets say that you have a very strong static magnetic field, from a huge magnet. (for instance, the strength of the magnet of...

The current direction is as follows I think so much and do the right hand rule i get 0 at the center, but not sure why the answer is non zero. I have shown the directions of the magnetic fields, i have not shown the magnitudes of equal length but they all are equal. Why the answer is non zero...

It is not a direct home work problem, i was thinking if a sine wave current passes through the straight current carrying conductor, what will be the magnetic field. For the DC current I know the formula as below. ##B = \frac {\mu_0 I 2a} {4\pi x\sqrt{x^2 + a^2}}## Let the current be ##I =...

qvB=mv^2/R R=mv/qB= p/qB ! As you can see, the difference between this relation and the relation in question is in 'c'. Maybe my way is wrong. Maybe I should get help from relativity because the speed of light is involved here. Please help. Thankful

Everywhere I look online I see the formula for the magnetic field of a uniformly moving charge is, $$\frac{\mu_0 q \vec v \times \vec r}{4\pi r^3}$$ but when I calculate it by transforming the electrostatic field (taking the motion along x) I get, $$\frac{\gamma \mu_0 q \vec v \times \vec...

The problem is simple, but have one confusion, if i substitute the values given, I get ## B = \frac {10^{-7}(6*10^{-6})[(8*10^6 \vec j) \times (-0.5\vec j + 0.5 \vec k)]} {r^2} ## ## B = 48\mu T\vec i## First thing the answer does not match. I don't see the angle in calculations between ##\vec...

i tried to draw the directions of the parameters The direction of B is clear since then the Force will be in the positive X direction. I am bit confused with the direction of Force, how would i draw it and the components. Is the gravitational force i have drawn is correct? Do we have better...

I bought a fun gadget from China. It's a model of Earth levitating in a magnetic field. I filmed it in operation to share with my friends, but I thought I would share it on PF too :smile:. I bought it online here. Film clip: I speak Swedish in the clip, and what I'm saying is this: "...

A classic example in textbooks is calculating the magnetic field inside a solenoid of length ##l## with ##N## turns and making the assumption that the magnetic field inside the solenoid is pretty uniform and outside it is 0. Using Ampere's law ## \oint_C \vec B \cdot d \vec l = \mu_0 I_{through}...

The beam of protons are directed towards the axis of the cylinder, perpendicular to the direction of the field. While traveling through the cross-section of the cylinder, the proton beam experiences a magnetic force, which tends to move the beam in a circular orbit of the radius given by: r =...

I first found the Lorentz force on the ball as a whole$$\vec{F}_m = \iiint_V \rho(\omega \times \vec{r} + \vec{V})\times \vec{B} dV = \rho \vec{\omega} \times \left( \iint_V \vec{r} dV \right) \times \vec{B} + \rho \iiint_V \vec{V} \times \vec{B} dV = Q\vec{V} \times \vec{B}$$due to the...

Well, I guess that is pretty much my question.

Suppose you are analyzing this image. The question to answer is: Explain why the alpha particle's path has a larger radius than either of the beta particle paths. Justify your answer using either momentum or charge-to-mass ratio. When you are answering this, suppose you know that , in...

Similar to what is shown here, except the south side would be the weak side of the array. A link to purchase one of these or at least the magnetic field arrangement would be very helpful. Thanks in advance.

My solution is making an analogy of the ##\text{Relevant equations}## as shown above, starting from the equation ##\vec \omega = \frac{1}{2} \vec \nabla \times \vec v##. We have ##\vec B = \vec \nabla \times \vec A = \frac{1}{2} \vec \nabla \times 2\vec A \Rightarrow 2\vec A = \vec B \times...

I'm reading about the Stern–Gerlach experiment and the only part that confuses me is how a magnetic field would deflect particles with magnetic dipoles instead of just rotating them. In this case the magnetic field is non-uniform, but it still seems intuitively strange to me since magnetic...

Say I've got a magnet flying through empty space in a homogenous magnetic field. The magnet precesses and flies in a straight path. Now make that magnetic field inhomogenous. The magnet precesses and flies in a curved path. What I can't figure out is why the path is curved. It is because...

I am new to this forum, and this is my first post. Please bear with me if my query has any inaccuracies. In the attached figure, a coil is wrapped around the central arm of a flat H-shaped thin metallic plate (such as iron). DC current flows through the coil and magnetizes the arm. At the...

Suppose that we have an insulating cylinder with ##\rho_q##. If i move the cylinder towards ##+\hat{n}##, will it produce a magnetic field? My assumption is that since we have an insulator, then the electrons are bound and there cannot be a current, thus a magnetic field is not produced. Also...

I am trying to understand but without a succes why symmetric magnetic field around ##Z## axis make that ##\hat \phi## magnetic field is zero I can't understand why it physically happens and also how can I derive it mathematically? What does the word symmetric means when talking about magnetic...

There's a constant magnetic field B. If a particle is acted on by a force qv*B (* cross) only, and the initial velocity v0 is normal to B, is the motion certainly a circular one (for any m, q, v0)? mv''=qv*B If one solves this equation (vector), it doesn't seem obvious.

Here, the correct options are A,D. Solution: I got A as answer as ∫ B.dl=µI. But, the answer to the question says that it is a solenoid and therefore Bx=0 for point P. Here I'm a bit confused. I know this system resembles a solenoid in some ways, then By must have some finite value, but...

I am sure I need to use Amper's law to do that. if I use the equation I mentioned above it easy to calculate the right side of the equation but I have problem how to calculate the path integral. I know from right hand rule that the magnetic field will point at $$Z$$ and the current is in...

I have an ordinary switchable magnet for holding tools to a lathe. It's like a magnetic force gearbox, but I can't quite understand the force multiplication. When placed on a steel surface the switch force is approximately ~5N on both finger and thumb at 1.5cm radius acting over a 3cm arc...

Ampere´'s law with the correction term I have a infinite cylinder with radius R with a current density , and magnetic field . I have to proof that it is acceptable to discard the correction term of term of ampere's law, while calculating the magnetic field, as long as it obeys the following...

About this figure, the current in the opposite wires are parallel (and not anti-parallel). So, for instance for the first option the torque is zero; but I wanted to know what is the magnetic moment of this loop. Since I rely only on formula I've have no idea how to compute for this one.

The equation of motion can be integrated w.r.t. ##t## since ##\frac{d}{dt} (\mathbf{r} \times \mathbf{B}) = \dot{\mathbf{r}} \times \mathbf{B} + \mathbf{0}## $$\int (q\dot{\mathbf{r}} \times \mathbf{B} + m\mathbf{g}) dt = \int m\ddot{\mathbf{r}}(t) dt$$ $$\frac{q}{m} \mathbf{r} \times \mathbf{B}...

In this image of Introduction to Electrodynamics by Griffiths . we have calculated the vector potential as ##\mathbf A = \frac{\mu_0 ~n~I}{2}s \hat{\phi}##. I tried taking its curl but didn't get ##\mathbf B = \mu_0~n~I \hat{z}##. In this thread, I have calculated it like this ...

Hello, in this problem I'm supposed to calculate de magnetic field due to a bent wire at any point of the x-axis after the bending of the wires. It is obvious that the part of the wire that is parallel to the x-axis makes no contribution to the field so we can focus on the other part of the...

Once I know the Hamiltonian, I know to take the determinant ##\left| \vec H-\lambda \vec I \right| = 0 ## and solve for ##\lambda## which are the eigenvalues/eigenenergies. My problem is, I'm unsure how to formulate the Hamiltonian. Is my potential ##U(r)## my scalar field ##\phi##? I've seen...
