4 Review Problem 2 How does your credit card work?
The stripe on the back of a credit card is a magnetic stripe, often called a magstripe. The magstripe is made up of tiny iron-based magnetic particles in a plastic-like film. Each particle is really a tiny bar magnet about 20-millionths of an inch long. The magstripe can be "written" because the tiny bar magnets can be magnetized in either a north or south pole direction. The magstripe on the back of the card is very similar to a piece of cassette tape . A magstripe reader (you may have seen one hooked to someone's PC at a bazaar or fair) can understand the information on the three-track stripe. 9/16/2018

5 Review Example 1: Flying duck
A duck flying horizontally due north at 15 m/s passes over Atlanta, where the magnetic field of the Earth is 5.0×10-5T in a direction 60° below a horizontal line running north and south. The duck has a positive charge of 4.0×10-8C. What is the magnetic force acting on the duck? 9/16/2018

6 Review Example 2: Wire in Earth’s B Field
A wire carries a current of 22 A from east to west. Assume that at this location the magnetic field of the earth is horizontal and directed from south to north, and has a magnitude of 0.50 x 10-4 T. Find the magnetic force on a 36-m length of wire. What happens if the direction of the current is reversed? B=0.50 x 10-4 T. I = 22 A l = 36 m Fmax = BIl 9/16/2018

7 19.5 Torque on a Current Loop
Imagine a current loop in a magnetic field as follows: B I b a a/2 F 9/16/2018

8 I F B B F a/2 b F F a 9/16/2018

9 In a motor, one has “N” loops of current
9/16/2018

10 Example 1 : Torque on a circular loop in a magnetic field
A circular loop of radius 50.0 cm is oriented at an angle of 30.0o to a magnetic field of 0.50 T. The current in the loop is 2.0 A. Find the magnitude of the torque. B r = m q = 30o B = 0.50 T I = 2.0 A N = 1 9/16/2018

11 Example 2: triangular loop
A 2.00m long wire carrying a current of 2.00A forms a 1 turn loop in the shape of an equilateral triangle. If the loop is placed in a constant magnetic field of magnitude 0.500T, determine the maximum torque that acts on it. 9/16/2018

12 19.6 Galvanometer/Applications
Device used in the construction of ammeters and voltmeters. Scale Current loop or coil Magnet Spring 9/16/2018

13 Galvanometer used as Ammeter
Typical galvanometer have an internal resistance of the order of 60 W - that could significantly disturb (reduce) a current measurement. Built to have full scale for small current ~ 1 mA or less. Must therefore be mounted in parallel with a small resistor or shunt resistor. Galvanometer 60 W Rp 9/16/2018

14 The equivalent resistance of the circuit is also small!
Galvanometer 60 W Rp Let’s convert a 60 W, 1 mA full scale galvanometer to an ammeter that can measure up to 2 A current. Rp must be selected such that when 2 A passes through the ammeter, only A goes through the galvanometer. Rp is rather small! The equivalent resistance of the circuit is also small! 9/16/2018

15 Galvanometer used as Voltmeter
Finite internal resistance of a galvanometer must also addressed if one wishes to use it as voltmeter. Must mounted a large resistor in series to limit the current going though the voltmeter to 1 mA. Must also have a large resistance to avoid disturbing circuit when measured in parallel. Rs Galvanometer 60 W 9/16/2018

16 Maximum voltage across galvanometer:
60 W Rs Maximum voltage across galvanometer: Suppose one wish to have a voltmeter that can measure voltage difference up to 100 V: Large resistance 9/16/2018

17 19.7 Motion of Charged Particle in magnetic field
Bin Consider positively charge particle moving in a uniform magnetic field. Suppose the initial velocity of the particle is perpendicular to the direction of the field. Then a magnetic force will be exerted on the particle and make follow a circular path. ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ ´ F v q r 9/16/2018

18 The magnetic force produces a centripetal acceleration.
The particle travels on a circular trajectory with a radius: 9/16/2018

19 Example 1 : Proton moving in uniform magnetic field
A proton is moving in a circular orbit of radius 14 cm in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.35 T, directed perpendicular to the velocity of the proton. Find the orbital speed of the proton. r = 0.14 m B = 0.35 T m = 1.67x10-27 kg q = 1.6 x C 9/16/2018

20 Example 2: Consider the mass spectrometer. The electric field between the plates of the velocity selector is 950 V/m, and the magnetic fields in both the velocity selector and the deflection chamber have magnitudes of T. Calculate the radius of the path in the system for a singly charged ion with mass m=2.18×10-26 kg. 9/16/2018

21 19.8 Magnetic Field of a long straight wire
Danish scientist Hans Oersted ( ) discovered somewhat by accident that an electric current in a wire deflects a nearby compass needle. In 1820, he performed a simple experiment with many compasses that clearly showed the presence of a magnetic field around a wire carrying a current. I=0 I 9/16/2018

22 Magnetic Field due to Currents
The passage of a steady current in a wire produces a magnetic field around the wire. Field form concentric lines around the wire Direction of the field given by the right hand rule. If the wire is grasped in the right hand with the thumb in the direction of the current, the fingers will curl in the direction of the field. Magnitude of the field I 9/16/2018

24 Ampere’s Law Consider a circular path surrounding a current, divided in segments Dl, Ampere showed that the sum of the products of the field by the length of the segment is equal to mo times the current. Andre-Marie Ampere I r Dl B 9/16/2018
