A solenoid 25.0 cmcm long and with a cross-sectional area of 0.550 cm^2 contains 460 turns of wire and carries a current of 90.0

A. Calculate:
a. the magnetic field in the solenoid.
b. the energy density in the magnetic field if the solenoid is filled with air.
c. the total energy contained in the coil’s magnetic field (assume the field is uniform).
d. the inductance of the solenoid.

Answer:

a.  B = 0.20T

b.  u = 17230.6 J/m³

c.  E = 0.236J

d.  L = 5.84*10^-5 H

Explanation:

a. In order to calculate the magnetic field in the solenoid you use the following formula:

B=\frac{\mu_o n i}{L}               (1)

μo: magnetic permeability of vacuum = 4π*10^-7 T/A

n: turns of the solenoid = 460

L: length of the solenoid = 25.0cm = 0.25m

i: current  = 90.0A

You replace the values of the parameters in the equation (1):

B=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)(90.0A)}{0.25m}=0.20T

The magnetic field in the solenoid is 0.20T

b. The magnetic permeability of air is approximately equal to the magnetic permeability of vacuum. To calculate the energy density in the solenoid you use:

u=\frac{B^2}{2\mu_o}=\frac{(0.20T)^2}{2(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)}=17230.6\frac{J}{m^3}

The energy density is 17230.6 J/m³

c. The total energy contained in the solenoid is:

E=uV           (2)

V is the volume of the solenoid and is calculated by assuming the solenoid as a perfect cylinder:

V=AL

A: cross-sectional area of the solenoid = 0.550 cm^2 = 5.5*10^-5m^2

V=(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)(0.25m)=1.375*10^{-5}m^3

Then, the energy contained in the solenoid is:

E=(17230.6J/m^3)(1.375*10^{-5}m^3)=0.236J

The energy contained is 0.236J

d. The inductance of the solenoid is calculated as follow:

L=\frac{\mu_o N^2 A}{L}=\frac{(4\pi*10^{-7}T/A)(460)^2(5.5*10^{-5}m^2)}{0.25m}\\\\L=5.84*10^{-5}H

The inductance of the solenoid is 5.84*10^-5 H

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Rate at which current flows is measured in amperes

Explanation:

The rate of flow of electrons constitutes the current. The electrons flow from lower electric potential to higher electric potential. When there is no potential difference then no electron will flow. The direction of the current and the electron are in opposite direction.

The direction of electron from the negative terminal to the positive terminal. The direction of current is from the positive terminal to the negative terminal.The current is measured in ampere.    

The expression for current and the charge is as;

I=\frac{q}{t}

Here, q is the charge, t is the time taken and I is the current.

According to the given problem, Jodi made a list about electric current to help her study for a test. He described that electrons move from areas of low to high electric potential, voltage causes current to flow and movement of electrons is continuous in a current.

But he did error. It should be "rate at which charges flow" instead of rate at which current flow.

Therefore, the option (4) is correct.

when an object is charged by contact, how does the kind of charge transferred compare to that on the object giving the charge?
11111nata11111 [884]

Lets say sphere 1 has a charge of 12 + and sphere 2 has a charge of 0 +. After they are touched Sphere 1 becomes 6 + and sphere 2 6 +. So 6 - 12 = a change of 6 -, while 6 - 0 = a change of 6 + Therfore,

Answer: The sign of the charge change / transfered are opposites.

Why is it good practice for scientists to repeat trails
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
It makes the data thet they collect more reliable so if they need the data again, they have already tested it a few times so therefor they know that it is right.

What must the driver do when approaching an intersection and seeing the traffic light turn from green to yellow?
NISA [10]
The person should start to slow down but if close enough or in the intersection go threw. Otherwise come to a complete stop until the light turns green again
