    A Superconductor ring: shielding currents in different directions

    In this photo you see on the right-hand side that the outer wall current is negative and the inner wall current is positive. That is, they are directed in different directions. But if the applied magnetic field is in the z direction as shown, then shouldn't they both be in the same direction do...

    Why Might a Rotating Ring in a B-field Ignore Certain Torques?

    Summary:: Please see the attached photo. I have obtained the correct answer, and my solution agrees with the official solution. However, I have some questions about why the solution is correct. (One may have to draw out some diagrams for this problem, it was quite hard to visualise for me.)...

    Electric field inside a charged ring

    I am just a bit confused here. Would doing this even change the electric field direction at the center at all? I'm thinking no, but a bit of direction would be appreciated. This problem is really simple, I'm just a bit confused.

    Does a charged insulating ring turn if a B-field is switched on?

    The physics behind this problem is that an electric field is induced (by Faraday's Law), when the B field is switched on. Charges on the ring now experience a force as given by dF = E dq. Apparently, because of this, the ring starts rotating. I understand that charges in an insulating material...

    Tension in a rotating ring under gravity

    I know the solution for the problem of the tension on a rotating ring without gravity (tha is, ##\frac{mR\omega^2}{2\pi}##) - that I find simple enough. But I'm at a loss how can I change it to do with gravity :/ Any help is appreciated! (and apologies for the bad drawing)

    What is the reaction force between the ring and the hoop?

    a.)N cos θ=mg N sin θ=mrw^2 sin θ cos θ=g/rw^2 b.) My question is reaction force =N ? or =F=mg tanθ ? If it is N then N=mg cosθ =mg^2/r w^2 or N=mg/cosθ =mrw^2 ? Thank you

    Questions about magnetic levitation of a Thompson Ring

    The Thompson jumping ring experiment consists in an AC supply connected to a coil with a metal steel core inside. A metal ring is placed around the core. When the AC supply is turned on, the ring suddenly jumps and after a time it starts levitating in a fixed height. I'm a little confused about...

    Equivalent resistance of a section of a graphite ring

    I considered that the lengths of pi/4 and 3pi/4 would be in parallel: 1/R = 1/30 + 1/10 R = 7,5 ohm But the answer is 30 ohm. Where am I missing and how do I calculate the potential of the voltmeter.

    Total Potential of a Ring at Point P

    I tried finding the potential due to a small element dM of the ring let's say dV, the summation of dV for all the dM's of the ring will give the potential at the point P, but since every element dM of the ring is at a different distance from the point P I am unable to come up with a differential...

    What is the tension in a charged ring?

    To find the increase in the radius of a rotating ring

    The increase in radius is due to the centripetal force acting on the ring. The centripetal force acting on each point of the ring is directed towards its center. We can find force using ## F_c = M(\omega)^2R## We can use this ##F_c## in the equation of Hooke's Law to find the elongation Could...

    Does an iron ring shield a static magnetic field?

    Hi. This picture shows an iron ring shielding a static magnetic field: Does this really work, and why? I know that a conductor can shield an electric field (Faraday cage) and a changing magnetic field (Lenz's law), but why would it shield a static field? Especially since iron is a ferromagnet.
