moving-charges-and-magnetism Question 11

Question: Q. 2. A particle of mass m and charge q is in motion at speed v parallel to a long straight conductor carrying current I as shown below.

Find magnitude and direction of electric field required so that the particle goes undeflected.

R&U [CBSE SQP 2018]

For the charged particle to move undeflected

Net force,

$$ \begin{align*} \vec{F} & =\vec{F}{E}+\overrightarrow{F{m}}=\overrightarrow{0} \ \overrightarrow{F_{E}} & =-\overrightarrow{F_{m}} \tag{1} \end{align*} $$

FE electric force, Fm magnetic force

$$ \begin{align*} \left|\vec{F}{E}\right| & =\left|\vec{F}{m}\right| \tag{2}\ q E & =B q v \sin 90^{\circ}=B q v \ E & =v B \ B & =\frac{\mu_{0} I}{2 \pi r} \tag{4} \end{align*} $$

Using (4) and (3)

(5)E=μ02πvIr

Magnetic force Fm is towards wire.

Electric force and electric field should be away from the line.

AI Q. 3. (a) State Biot-Savart’s law and express it in the vector form.

(b) Using Biot-Savart’s law, obtain the expression for the magnetic field due to a circular coil of radius r, carrying a current I at a point on its axis distant x from the centre of the coil.

Solution:

Ans. (a) Statement of Biot-Savart law } & 1 / 2 \ \text { Its vector form } & 1 / 2\end{array}$

(b) Obtaining the required expression

1/2 2

(a) According to Biot Savart law :

The magnitude of magnetic field dB, due to a current element dl, is

(i) proportional to current I and element length, dl

(ii) inversely proportional to the square of the distance r.

Its direction is perpendicular to the plane containing dl and r.

1/2

In vector notation,

dB=μ04πIdl×rr3

(b)

We have, dB=μ04πI|dI×r|r3 r2=x2+R2 dB=μ0I4πdl(x2+R2)3/2

We need to add only the components of dB¯ along the axis of the coil.

Hence,

B=μ0I4πIdl(x2+R2)3/2cosθ =μ0I4π(Idl)R(x2+R2)3/2 =μ0IR22(x2+R2)3/2 B=μ0IR22(x2+R2)3/2i^
