The axial field is the integration of the field from each element of charge around the ring. Because of symmetry, the field is only in the direction of the axis. The field from an element ds in the ring is
<span>dE = (qs*ds)cos(T)/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>
<span>where x is the distance along the axis from the plane of the ring, R is the radius of the ring, qs is the linear charge density, T is the angle of the field from the x-axis. </span>
<span>However, cos(T) = x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2) </span>
<span>so the equation becomes </span>
<span>dE = (qs*ds)*[x/sqrt(x^2 + R^2)]/(4*pi*e0)*(x^2 + R^2) </span>
<span>dE =[qs*ds/(4*pi*e0)]*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>
<span>Integrating around the ring you get </span>
<span>E = (2*pi*R/4*pi*e0)*x/(x^2 + R^2)^1.5 </span>
<span>E = (R/2*e0)*x*(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 </span>
<span>we differentiate wrt x, the term R/2*e0 is a constant K, and the derivative is </span>
<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 +x*[(-1.5)*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5]*2x} </span>
<span>dE/dx = K*{(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5} </span>
<span>to find the maxima set this = 0, giving </span>
<span>(x^2 + R^2)^-1.5 - 3*x^2*(x^2 + R^2)^-2.5 = 0 </span>
<span>mult both side by (x^2 + R^2)^2.5 to get </span>
<span>(x^2 + R^2) - 3*x^2 = 0 </span>
<span>-2*x^2 + R^2 = 0 </span>
<span>-2*x^2 = -R^2 </span>
<span>x = (+/-)R/sqrt(2) </span>
Answer:
the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm
Explanation:
given,
two concentric current loops
smaller loop radius = 3.6 cm
]current in smaller loop = 12 A
current in the bigger loop = 20 A
magnetic field at the center of loop = 0
Radius of the bigger loop = ?
now, on solving
= 
= 6 cm
hence, the radius of bigger loop = 6 cm
This thermal energy flows as heat within the box and floor, ultimately raising the temperature of both of these objects.
(a) The value of the gravitational acceleration is given by:
where
is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
is the Earth's radius at the pole
If we use the value for g given by the problem, 
, and we rearrange the equation above, we find the value of the Earth's mass:
(b) The value we found for the Earth's mass is 
, and we see that this value is slightly larger than the accepted value of 
.
