At two later instants,
- Use Lenz’ law to determine whether the flux due to the current induced in the loop is positive, negative, or zero. Explain.
- Describe the current in the loop during this time interval.
Student 1: “The sign of the flux is the same as it was in part C. So the current here will also be counter-clockwise.”
Student 2: “I agree. If I think about the force on a positive charge on the leading edge of the loop. ¡t points towards the top of the page. That's consistent with a counter-clockwise current.”
Do you agree with either student? Explain.

- The current in the central branch of the circuit below (I3) is 2A. Use Kirchoff's rules to find the current flowing around the boundary of the upper loop (I1).arrow_forwardAs the lesson discussed, electromotive force (in volts) is generated by a change in flux. This induced voltage, , is given by the formula, in wire loops where current can flow. Remember, flux is the product of magnetic field and area: In this picture below, the magnetic field is pointing out of the page. The "loop" is on the right. As the bar moves to the left, the flux of the loop because the area of the loop increases. Current is induced to oppose this change in flux, generating an induced magnetic field that . Therefore, the current will .arrow_forwardHelp me pleasearrow_forward

The two conductors are held at potential difference V. A current I flows to the right in the inner conductor, and an equal and opposite current flows in the conducting shell. Use a coordinate system with ? in the radial direction, 6 in the azimuthal direction, and 2 along the axis of the cylinders, pointing to the right. a.

The wires are separated by distance d. Rectangular wire loop of side lengths a and b is placed in the plane of the line while its longer sides are parallel to the line wires (Figure below). The loop moves away from the transmission line with constant velocity v. At moment t = O, the distance between one of the wires of the transmission line and one of the sides of the loop is x = c.

A steady current / flows throughout the circuit shown below, consisting of two straight, semi-infinite lengths of wire joined by a semicircular piece (radius a). The entire circuit lies in a plane. Choose an appropriate coordinate system and calculate the magnetic field B at the point P, which is at the center of the semicircle in the plane of the circuit. Be sure to indicate on the drawing your choice of coordinate system. (Hint: Break the problem into pieces, find the contribution to the magnetic field from each piece and then add those together.]arrow_forwardIn the diagram at right, switch S is initially closed, and the battery is driving a current counter-clockwise through the top loop. Suppose that the switch is opened at time t1, help open until time t2, and then closed again. Describe the current that will be induced in the bottom loop while all this occurs. O There will be a brief pulse of counter-clockwise current, both when S is opened and when it is closed. O There will be a brief pulse of counter-clockwise current when Sis opened, and then a brief pulse of clockwise current when S is closed. O There will be a steady clockwise current before S is opened, a steady counter-clockwise current while S remains open, and then a steady clockwise current again after S is closed. O There will be a brief pulse of clockwise current, both when S is opened and when it is closed.
