Bar magnet... why are the magnetic poles of a magnet are located somewhere within the magnet,not at the ends?

Homework Statement 23) A person weighs less at the equator than at the poles. The main reason for this has to do with A) the spin of the Earth. B) the shape of the Earth. C) both the spin of the Earth and the shape of the Earth. D) the influence of the sun, moon, and all the planets...

Trying to help someone out with their assignments on basic polar graphs. This first question is very easy to determine the poles from as the limacon has an inner loop. But when you have a limacon WITHOUT (below) an inner loop, how does the "max from pole" and "min from pole" figure? It's been...

Can anybody say me why always like poles repel and unlike poles attract but not why like poles attract and unlike poles attract

Hi, Recently I came across an annular permanent magnet (round magnet with a hole in it) which had fallen and broken in half, effectively forming two horse-shoe magnets. I noticed that the two halves had similar poles: |---------- S S-------- | | |...

Hello all. I have two questions. 1] How do poles and zeros relate to bode plots? What happens at a pole or zero? 2] Can you come up with a rough sketch of a bode plot if you know the following (without having to use the transfer function)?: - Zeros - Poles...

Consider 2 cases case 1: no of rotor poles = 2 no of stator poles =4 case 2: no of rotor poles = 4 no of stator poles =2 What will happen in case 1 & 2 ? Will Induction motor run?

I was wondering what voltage or current, if any, would be produced if the basic magnet through a copper coil experiment had the poles rotated 90 degress so north and south faced the top/bottom of the coil rather than the entry/exit points? The attached image has a basic illustration of this...

Hi all, I am studying QFT using John Preskill's notes. I have a question about the propagator and poles. On page 2.91, at the bottom, he said that there is a s-channel pole, which is the pole of the exact propagator. Then he claimed that by the argument about unitarity in page 2.70, the pole...

why poles of machine are always even?

Homework Statement Find the order of the poles of f(z)=z/(e^z-1) Homework Equations The poles are at z=2 π i k k\inZ\0 (Because at z=0 f(z) has a removable singularity -set f(0)=1) The Attempt at a Solution I tried using the Taylor series of e^z - \sumz^n/n! But I just...

I know that \int_{- \infty}^{\infty} e^{-x^2}dx = \sqrt{\pi}. What if I tried evaluating this over the complex plane? If I created a contour that ran along the real axis, then circled around from positive to negative infinity this should not change things as along the curve at...

I was wondering what the difference in the magnetic poles north and south is and what makes them unique.

Hi, I'm new here, but it seems there are some pretty intellectual people running around. I was researching magnetorheological fluids, simply because I came across them and thought they were really interesting. I learned that when they are subjected to a magnetic field, the iron particles in...

Homework Statement Hello, I would like your comments on my observations. I have a set of data from a step experiment, one input (volts D.C), one output (temperature). By doing system identification, the resultant model is second order and its poles lie at 0.99 and 0.8 (z-plane) Now for...

Homework Statement A student finds an old magnet at the back of a drawer containing other magnets. He designs an experiment to find out if it is still magnetised. (i) He brings a plotting compass near to end A of the old magnet, as shown in the first part of the image. State the...

Is it possible for a magnet to have same poles? i saw a question in which the compass points the same way in both ends.

Please find the attached picture.. My understanding : Use right hand thumb rule to find the direction of magnetic flux lines when the direction of currents are known. When I have a 'cross', the lines will be in clockwise direction while I have a 'dot', the lines will be in anticlcokwise...

Hi all, Would like to start off by letting you all know i am new to the PF and the reason for joining is due to constant ideas and thoughts flooding my brain to no end, i do not have any physics degree's but i do share an intense interest in Physics. According to a friend of mine the only...

Hi! From "Le Bellac, Quantum and statistical field theory, 10.5.2-Massive vector field": "The longitudinal part of the propagator k_{\mu}D^{\mu\nu} has no pole at k^2=m^2, so the longitudinal part doesn't constitute a dynamical degree of freedom." I have two questions: 1) Why the propagator...

Can someone help me to expand the following gamma functions around the pole ε, at fisrt order in ε \Gamma[(1/2) \pm (ε/2)] where ε= d-4

I am supposed to discuss the benefits of having high number of magnetic poles in ac generators with constant frequency. From formula it is obvious that the higher number of poles the lower the speed of rotation. But is there anything else, or what is the benefit of lower speed? The only...

Hello, Generally and specially in AC motors, what is the effect of the no of poles of the rotor on the motor performance? if it's same or less or more than the no of poles of the stator? Thanks

Homework Statement evaluate the integral: I_1 =\int_0^\infty \frac{dx}{x^2 + 1} by integrating around a semicircle in the upper half of the complex plane. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution first i exchange the real vaiable x with a complex variable z & factorize...

Compute the residue of $\Gamma(z)$ at each of its poles. So the poles are at the negative integers and 0. I suspect there must be a formula than since this is an infinite set. $\Gamma(z) = \dfrac{e^{-\gamma z}}{z}\prod\limits_{n=1}^{\infty}\left(1+\dfrac{z}{n}\right)^{-1}e^{z/n}$ Should I...

Topic. If I have an iron shaped like a bar magnet placed flat on the floor, can the poles of the magnet be pointing anywhere else other than 90 degrees and 180 degrees?

$$ \int_0^{\infty}\frac{(\log x)^2}{1 + x^2}dx = \frac{\pi^3}{8} $$ I have no idea what to do with this integral. I can't see it is even and do 1/2 the integral from -infinity to infinity since log -x doesn't make sense.

Homework Statement \int_{|z-2i|=2} = \frac{dz}{z^2-9} 2. The attempt at a solution I know that the contour described by |z-2i|=2 is a circle with a center of (0,2) (on the complex plane) with a radius of 2. The singularities of the integral fall outside of the contour (z+3 and...

I am currently conducting a project where a yacht will be suspended in air by two straps which are connected together by two poles. The poles will be mounted on a barge and therefore I want to find how I can relate the angle of heel (\varphi) to the two angles. Although the yacht will remain...

Hi I'm working on a science experiment and I need two electromagnets to push away from each other, but the two small electromagnets I've made (using two bolts wrapped in magnet wire and a D battery) just attract each other no matter which ends I put together. Am I doing something wrong? Do I...

If f is meromorphic on U with only a finite number of poles, then f=\frac{g}{h} where g and h are analytic on U. We say f is meromorphic, then f is defined on U except at discrete set of points S which are poles. If z_0 is such a point, then there exist m in integers such that (z-z_0)^mf(z)...

This has been on my mind for quite a while. The LHC controls and accelerates particles with superconducting magnets, but then is the idea of magnetic domains in magnetic materials wrong as it paints the picture that electrons are causing the magnetism because of their alignment? Which is it, the...

Why do the magnetic poles line up (relatively speaking) with the poles of Earth's rotation?

Hi, i'm having a bit of trouble understanding how a system modeled by a transfer function in the laplace domain with no zero's and a complex conjugate pair for the poles causes an oscillation when the unit step function is applied. Any help would be appreciated Many thanks.

as per the title. does anyone know?

If i know just these 3 values is it possible to implement a circuit using just OP-AMPS, capacitors, and resistors? How would I go about determining what values the capacitors and OP-amps should have? The circuit is a low-pass filter and thus needs to amplify and filter simultaneously.

Can anyone point me to a journal article that describes, mathematically or otherwise, how those jets shoot from the poles of some black holes with accretion discs and AGN. Also, if you will forgive the additional question, is there any reason why the physics that describe the ejection from...
