Question

(1394) Problem 4: A rod of m = 0.45 kg and L = 0.45 m is on a ramp of two parallel rails with angle = 24° with respect to the horizontal. The current on the rod is 1= 4.1 A, pointing into the screen as shown. A uniform magnetic field B = 0.55 T which points upward is applied in the region. Ignore the friction on the rails. ---- V 10% Part (a) Express the magnitude of the magnetic force in terms of L, I and B. V 10% Part (b) Calculate the numerical value of the magnitude of the magnetic force in N. A 10% Part (C) Which direction is the magnetic force? * 10% Part (d) Express the component of the magnetic force parallel to the ramp in terms of F3 and . * 10% Part (e) Express the component of the weight parallel to the ramp in terms of m, g and e. Take up the ramp to be positive. * 10% Part (1) Calculate the numerical value of the net force Fn parallel to the ramp, assuming the positive direction is up the ramp in N.

Explanation / Answer

d)

F_B x= F_B * cos theta

(e)

W= - mg sin theta

(f)

F_n = BIL - mg sin theta

= ( 0.55) ( 4.1) ( 0.45) - 0.45 ( 9.8) sin24

=-0.77 N

(g)

a= F_n/m

(h)

a= -0.77 N/0.45 = -1.73 m/s^2

(i)

North-Eastern (upward in the ramp)

(j)

south-western (downward in the ramp)
