For a magnetic dipole, any closed surface the magnetic flux directed inward toward
the south pole will equal the flux outward from the north pole. The net flux will always
be zero for dipole sources.
If there were a magnetic monopole source, this would give a non-zero area integral.
The divergence of a vector field is proportional to the point source density, so the
form of Gauss' law for magnetic fields is then a statement that there are no magnetic
monopoles.
Problem 3
The following charges are located inside a submarine:
5.00μC, -9.00 μC, 27.0 μC, and -84.0 μC. (a)
Calculate the net electric flux through the hull of the
submarine. (b) Is the number of electric field lines
leaving the submarine greater than, equal to, or less
than the number entering it?
Problem 4.
The electric field everywhere on the surface of a
thin spherical shell of radius 0.750m is
measured to be 890N/C and points radially
toward the center of the sphere. (a) What is the
net charge within the sphere’s surfaces? (b)
What can you conclude about the nature and
distribution of the charge inside the spherical
shell?
Faraday's Law of Induction
The line integral of the electric field around a closed loop is equal to the negative of
the rate of change of the magnetic flux through the area enclosed by the loop.
This line integral is equal to the generated voltage or emf in the loop, so Faraday's law is
the basis for electric generators. It also forms the basis for inductors and transformers.
QUIZ
For a long solenoid with closely spaced turns, each coil will a) exert
an attractive force on the next adjacent coil, b) exert a repulsive force on the
next adjacent coil, c) exert zero force on the next adjacent coil, or d) exert
an attractive or repulsive force on the next adjacent coil, depending on the
current direction in the solenoid.
(a). Because the coils are closely spaced, the distance between
adjacent coils will be much smaller than the radius, r, of each
coil and the forces between the coils can be approximated as
the same as the force between two parallel wires of length 2pr.
Since the currents are in the same direction, the force will be
attractive.
Ampere's Law
In the case of static electric field, the line integral of the magnetic field around a
closed loop is proportional to the electric current flowing through the loop. This is
useful for the calculation of magnetic field for simple geometries.
Q. A wire carrying a current of
5.00 A is to be formed into a
circular loop of one turn. If the
required value of the magnetic
field at the center of the loop is
10.0 μT, what is the
required radius?
Answer: 31.4 cm
Q. A cylindrical conductor of radius R = 2.50 cm carries
• a current of I = 2.50 A along its length; this current is
• uniformly distributed throughout the cross-section
• of the conductor.
• (a) Calculate the magnetic
field midway along the radius of the wire
(that is, at r = R/2).
(b) Find the distance beyond the surface of the
conductor at which the magnitude of the magnetic
field has the same value as the magnitude of
the field at r = R/2.
Answer: (a) 10.0 μT; (b) 2.50 cm
Q. A current path shaped as shown in Figure produces
a magnetic field at P, the center of the arc. If the arc subtends
an angle of 30.0° and the radius of the arc is 0.600 m,
what are the magnitude and direction of the field
produced at P if the current is 3.00 A?
