12.6 Exercise 1
What is the ratio of the magnetic field produced from using a finite formula over the infinite approximation for an angle of (a) (b) The solenoid has 1000 turns in 50 cm with a current of 1.0 A flowing through the coils
12.6 Exercise 3
Explain why inside a long, hollow copper pipe that is carrying an electric current parallel to the axis. Is outside the pipe?
12.6 Exercise 4
A solenoid is wound with 2000 turns per meter. When the current is 5.2 A, what is the magnetic field within the solenoid?
12.6 Exercise 6
If a current is 2.0 A, how many turns per centimeter must be wound on a solenoid in order to produce a magnetic field of within it?
12.6 Exercise 8
Determine the magnetic field on the central axis at the opening of a semi-infinite solenoid. (That is, take the opening to be at and the other end to be at
)
12.6 Exercise 10
A solenoid with 25 turns per centimeter carries a current I. An electron moves within the solenoid in a circle that has a radius of 2.0 cm and is perpendicular to the axis of the solenoid. If the speed of the electron is what is I?
12.6 Exercise 12
A toroid with a square cross section 3.0 cm 3.0 cm has an inner radius of 25.0 cm. It is wound with 500 turns of wire, and it carries a current of 2.0 A. What is the strength of the magnetic field at the center of the square cross section?
