Answer
given,
mass of copper rod = 1 kg
horizontal rails = 1 m
Current (I) = 50 A
coefficient of static friction = 0.6
magnetic force acting on a current carrying wire is
F = B i L
Rod is not necessarily vertical
the normal reaction N = mg-F y
static friction f = μ_s (mg-F y )
horizontal acceleration is zero
B_w = B sinθ
B_d = B cosθ
iLB cosθ= μ_s (mg- iLB sinθ)
B = 0.1 T
Answer:
The tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.
Explanation:
Given;
Radius of copper wire, R = 3.5 mm
extension of the copper wire, e = 5.0×10⁻³ L
L is the original length of the copper wire,
Young's modulus for copper, Y = 11×10¹⁰Pa.
Young's modulus, Y is given as the ratio of tensile stress to tensile strain, measured in the same unit as Young's modulus.
Therefore, the tensile stress on the wire is 550 MPa.
