Magnetics Ques 116

  1. A rigid wire loop of square shape having side of length $L$ and resistance $R$ is moving along the $x$-axis with a constant velocity $v _0$ in the plane of the paper. At $t=0$, the right edge of the loop enters a region of length $3 L$, where there is a uniform magnetic field $B _0$ into the plane of the paper, as shown in the figure. For sufficiently large $v _0$, the loop eventually crosses the region. Let $x$ be the location of the right edge of the loop. Let $v(x), I(x)$ and $F(x)$ represent the velocity of the loop, current in the loop, and force on the loop, respectively, as a function of $x$. Counter-clockwise current is taken as positive.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 116.(b,c)

Solution:

When loop was entering $(x<L)$

$ \begin{aligned} \phi & =B L x \\ e & =-\frac{d \phi}{d t}=-B L \frac{d x}{d t} \\ |e| & =B L v \\ i & =\frac{e}{R}=\frac{B L v}{R} (anti-clockwise) \end{aligned} $

$F=i l B($ Left direction $)=\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{R}($ in left direction $)$

$\Rightarrow \quad a=\frac{F}{m}=-\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{m R}$

$a=v \frac{d v}{d x}$

$v \frac{d v}{d x}=-\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{m R}$

$\Rightarrow \quad \int _{v _0}^{v} d v=-\frac{B^{2} L^{2}}{m R} \int _0^{x} d x$

$\Rightarrow v=v _0-\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{m R} x($ straight line of negative slope for $x<L)$

$I=\frac{B L}{R} v \Rightarrow(I v s x$ will also be straight line of negative slope for $x<L$ )

$ \frac{d \phi}{d t}=0, e=0, i=0 $

$ F=0, \quad x>4 L $

$ e=B l v $

Force also will be in left direction.

$ \begin{gathered} i=\frac{B L v}{R} \text { (clockwise) } \\ a=\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{m R}=v \frac{d v}{d x} \\ F=\frac{B^{2} L^{2} v}{R} \\ \int _L^{x}-\frac{B^{2} L^{2}}{m R} d x=\int _{v _i}^{v _f} d v \\ \Rightarrow-\frac{B^{2} L^{2}}{m R}(x-L)=v _f-v _i \\ v _f-v _i-\frac{B^{2} L^{2}}{m R}(x-L) \text { (straight line of negative slope) } \\ I=\frac{B L v}{R} \rightarrow(\text { Clockwise) (straight line of negative slope) } \end{gathered} $
