Answer to Problem 81P

The force on segment 1, 2, 3 and 4 are (2.5×105N)(j^) , (1.00×104N)(i^) , (2.5×105N)(j^) and (0.286×104N)(i^) respectively.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The straight wire carries a current I1=20.0A .

The coil carries a current I2=5.00A .

The length of parallel sides are 5.00cm and 10.0cm .

Formula used:

The expression for force in first segment is given by,

  F1=μ0I1I22πlog(7.0cm2.0cm)(j^)

The expression for force in second segment is given by,

  F2=μ0I1I2l22π(2.0cm)(i^)

The expression for force in third segment is given by,

  F3=F1

The expression for force in fourth segment is given by,

  F4=μ0I1I2l42π(7.0cm)(i^)

Calculation:

The force in first segment is calculated as,

  F1=μ0I1I22πlog( 7.0cm 2.0cm)(j^)=( 4π× 10 7 N/ A 2 )( 20.0A)( 5.00A)2πlog( 7.0cm 2.0cm)(j^)=(2.5× 10 5N)(j^)

The force in second segment is calculated as,

  F2=μ0I1I2l22π( 2.0cm)(i^)=( 4π× 10 7 N/ A 2 )( 20.0A)( 5.00A)( ( 10cm )( 10 2 m 1cm ))2π( ( 2.0cm )( 10 2 m 1cm ))l(i^)=(1.00× 10 4N)(i^)

The expression for force in third segment is given by,

  F3=F1=(2.5× 10 5N)(j^)=(2.5× 10 5N)(j^)

The expression for force in fourth segment is given by,

  F4=μ0I1I2l42π( 7.0cm)(i^)=( 4π× 10 7 N/ A 2 )( 20.0A)( 5.00A)( ( 10cm )( 10 2 m 1cm ))2( ( 7.0cm )( 10 2 m 1cm ))(i^)=(0.286× 10 4N)(i^)

Conclusion:

Therefore, the force on segment 1, 2, 3 and 4 are (2.5×105N)(j^) , (1.00×104N)(i^) , (2.5×105N)(j^) and (0.286×104N)(i^) respectively.

Answer to Problem 81P

The net force on the coil is (0.71×104N)i^ .

Explanation of Solution

Formula used:

The expression for net force on the coil is given by,

  Fnet=F1+F2+F3+F4

Calculation:

The net force on the coil is calculated as,

  Fnet=F1+F2+F3+F4=(2.5× 10 5N)(j^)+(( 1.00× 10 4 N)( i ^))+(( 2.5× 10 5 N)( j ^))+(0.286× 10 4N)(i^)=(1.00× 10 4N)i^+(0.286× 10 4N)(i^)=(0.71× 10 4N)i^

Conclusion:

Therefore, the net force on the coil is (0.71×104N)i^ .
