Homework 3

PART-A

Q1.In the given figure, the cube is 40.0 cm on each edge. Four straight segments of wire-ab, bc, cd, and
da—form a closed loop that carries a current I =5.00 A, in the direction shown. A uniform magnetic field
of magnitude B = 0.020 0 T is in the positive y direction. Determine the magnitude and direction of the
magnetic force on each segment.

Q2. A rectangular coil consists of N =100 closely wrapped turns and has dimensions a =0.400 m and b =
0.300 m.The coil is hinged along the y axis, and its plane makes an angle Φ= 30.0° with the x axis . What
is the magnitude of the torque exerted on the coil by a uniform magnetic field B = 0.800 T directed along
the x axis when the current is I =1.20 A in the direction shown? What is the expected direction of rotation
of the coil?

Q3. A flat ribbon of silver having a thickness t =0.200 mm is used in a Hall-effect measurement of a
uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the ribbon, as shown in Figure. The Hall coefficient for silver is
RH = 0.840 x10-10m3/C. (a) What is the density of charge carriers in silver? (b) If a current I =20.0 A
produces a Hall voltage ΔVH =15.0 µV, what is the magnitude of the applied magnetic field?
Part-B

Q4 A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.150 T is directed along the positive x axis. A positron
moving at 5.00 x106 m/s enters the field along a direction that makes an angle of 85.0° with the x axis .
The motion of the particle is expected to be a helix. Calculate (a) the pitch p and (b) the radius r of the
trajectory.

Q5. A single-turn square loop of wire, 2.00 cm on each edge, carries a clockwise current of 0.200 A. The
loop is inside a solenoid, with the plane of the loop perpendicular to the magnetic field of the solenoid.
The solenoid has 30 turns/cm and carries a clockwise current of 15.0 A.Find the force on each side of the
loop and the torque acting on the loop.

Q6. In Figure , both currents in the infinitely long wires are in the negative x direction. (a) Sketch the
magnetic field pattern in the yz plane. (b) At what distance d along the z axis is the magnetic field a
maximum?
