Each part is worth 1 point. Assume the numbers given in each problem are accurate to three significant figures. WebAssign expects your answers to be accurate within 1%. If you don't round off until the end, and then round off to three significant figures, you should be fine. Occasionally there are errors in WebAssign. If you are convinced your answer is correct and WebAssign is grading you incorrectly please check with Professor Duffy. 1. 0/3 pointsduffy_ep_ch19_p59 [1373028] A single-turn rectangular wire loop measures 6.00 cm wide by 10.0 cm long.

2 of 7 3/13/2010 8:47 AM The picture above shows four different cases of a conducting square loop (in orange), traveling at speed v and passing through a rectangular region. In the left half of the rectangular region, the magnetic field is uniform and directed into the screen; in the right half, the magnetic field is uniform and directed out of the screen. The field has the same magnitude in each half of the rectangular region, and there is no magnetic field outside the rectangular region. (a) Rank the four cases based on the magnitude of the total magnetic flux passing through the loop, from largest to smallest, at the instant shown in the picture. Use only > or = signs in your answer, such as B>A=D>C.

[294175] Electromagnetic Induction In this simulation the current in a long straight wire produces a magnetic field. Depending on what is happening to the current in that wire, there may or may not be a current induced in the conducting loop shown to the right of the wire. An ammeter measures the current in the loop. Try moving the slider, which controls the current in the wire, to see what happens to the current in the loop. (a) The current in the loop is sometimes positive and sometimes negative. Under what condition is the current in the loop a positive value? When the magnetic field produced by the long straight wire is directed out of the screen when it passes through the loop. When the magnetic field produced by the long straight wire is directed into the screen when it passes through the loop. When the current in the loop is clockwise. When the current in the loop is
4 of 7 3/13/2010 8:47 AM (b) Which of the following statements about this situation are true? Select all that apply. To produce a positive current in the loop, the current in the wire must be positive. To produce a positive current in the loop, the current in the wire must be negative. To produce a positive current in the loop, the current in the wire must be getting more positive (or less negative). To produce a positive current in the loop, the current in the wire must be getting more negative (or less positive). To produce a current in the loop, the current in the wire must be changing, but it makes no difference how fast the current in the wire changes. To produce a current in the loop, the current in the wire must be changing. The faster the current in the wire changes, the larger the magnitude of the current in the loop. 4. 0/2 pointsduffy_ep_ch20_p103 [1373049] The picture on the left, above, shows four conducting loops, labeled A through D, that are moving in the indicated direction near a long straight wire that is carrying a constant current to the right.

The graphs above show the magnetic flux through each loop of the coil as a function of time, for three different cases. The units of flux are webers, which are equivalent to tesla meters 2. The flux through each loop changes because the magnetic field changes. Assume that the field is uniform and the direction of the field is perpendicular to the plane of the coil - positive flux means the field is passing in one direction through the coil, and negative flux means that the field is passing through the coil in the opposite direction. (a) Rank the cases based on the magnitude of the flux passing through each loop of the coil at a time of t = 23 s, from largest to smallest. Only use > and/or = signs in your answer, such as A>B>C. C>A>B (b) Rank the cases based on the magnitude of the induced current in the coil at a time of t = 23 s, from largest to smallest. Only use > and/or = signs in your answer, such as A>B>C.
