प्रश्न

The two rails of a railway track, insulated from each other and from the ground, are connected to a millivoltmeter. What will be the reading of the millivoltmeter when a train travels on the track at a speed of 180 km h−1? The vertical component of earth's magnetic field is 0.2 × 10−4 T and the rails are separated by 1 m.

बेरीज

उत्तर

Here,

Velocity of the train, v = 180 km/h = 50 m/s

Earth's magnetic field, B = 0.2 × 10−4 T

Separation between the railings, l = 1 m

Induced emf, e = Bvl = 0.2 × 10−4 × 50 = 10−3 V

So, the voltmeter will record 1 mV as the reading.

A square loop of side 12 cm with its sides parallel to X and Y axes is moved with a velocity of 8 cm s−1 in the positive x-direction in an environment containing a magnetic field in the positive z-direction. The field is neither uniform in space nor constant in time. It has a gradient of 10−3 T cm−1 along the negative x-direction (that is it increases by 10− 3 T cm−1 as one move in the negative x-direction), and it is decreasing in time at the rate of 10−3 T s−1. Determine the direction and magnitude of the induced current in the loop if its resistance is 4.50 mΩ.

Suppose the circular loop lies in a vertical plane. The rod has a mass m. The rod and the loop have negligible resistances but the wire connecting O and C has a resistance R.

Find the value of R in terms of the given quantities.
