A magnetic field $\mathbf{B}=B_0 \sin (\omega t) \hat{\mathbf{k}}$ covers a large region where a wire $A B$ slides smoothly over two parallel conductors separated by a distance $d$ (figure). The wires are in the $x-y$ plane. The wire $A B$ (of length $d$ ) has resistance $R$ and the parallel wires have negligible resistance. If $A B$ is moving with velocity $v$, what is the current in the circuit. What is the force needed to keep the wire moving at constant velocity?

Explanation

Let us assume that the parallel wires at are $y=0$ i.e., along $x$-axis and $y=d$. At $t=0, A B$ has $x=0$, i.e., along $y$-axis and moves with a velocity $v$. Let at time $t$, wire is at $x(t)=v t$.

Now, the motional emf across $A B$ is

$$=\left(B_0 \sin \omega t\right) v d(-\hat{\mathbf{j}})$$

emf due to change in field (along $O B A C$ )

$$=-B_0 \omega \cos \omega t x(t) d$$

Total emf in the circuit $=$ emf due to change in field (along $O B A C$ ) + the motional emf across $A B$

$$=-B_0 d[\omega x \cos (\omega t)+v \sin (\omega t)]$$

Electric current in clockwise direction is given by

$$=\frac{B_0 d}{R}(\omega x \cos \omega t+v \sin \omega t)$$

The force acting on the conductor is given by $F=i l B \sin 90 \Upsilon=i l B$

Substituting the values, we have

$$\begin{aligned} \text { Force needed along } \mathbf{i} & =\frac{B_0 d}{R}(\omega x \cos \omega t+v \sin \omega t) \times d \times B_0 \sin \omega t \\ & =\frac{B_0^2 d^2}{R}(\omega x \cos \omega t+v \sin \omega t) \sin \omega t \end{aligned}$$

This is the required expression for force./p>

A conducting wire $X Y$ of mass $m$ and negligible resistance slides smoothly on two parallel conducting wires as shown in figure. The closed circuit has a resistance $R$ due to $A C$. $A B$ and $C D$ are perfect conductors. There is a magnetic field $\mathbf{B}=B(t) \hat{\mathbf{k}}$

(i) Write down equation for the acceleration of the wire $X Y$.

(ii) If $\mathbf{B}$ is independent of time, obtain $v(t)$, assuming $v(0)=u_0$

(iii) For (ii), show that the decrease in kinetic energy of $X Y$ equals the heat lost in .

Explanation

Let us assume that the parallel wires at are $y=0$, i.e., along $x$-axis and $y=l$. At $t=0, X Y$ has $x=0$ i.e., along $y$-axis.

(i) Let the wire be at $x=x(t)$ at timet .

The magnetic flux linked with the loop is given by

$$\begin{aligned} & \qquad \phi=\mathbf{B} \cdot \mathbf{A}=B A \cos 0=B A \\ & \text { at any instant } t \quad \text { Magnetic fluX }=B(t)(l \times x(t)) \\ & \text { Total emf in the circuit }=\text { emf due to change in field (along } X Y A C)+ \text { the motional emf } \\ & \text { across } X Y \end{aligned}$$

$E=-\frac{d \phi}{d t}=-\frac{d B(t)}{d t} l x(t)-B(t) l v(t) \quad$ [second term due to motional emf]

Electric current in clockwise direction is given by

$$I=\frac{1}{R} E$$

The force acting on the conductor is given by $F=i l B \sin 90 \Upsilon=i l B$

Substituting the values, we have

$$\text { Force }=\frac{I B(t)}{R}\left[-\frac{d B(t)}{d t} I x(t)-B(t) I v(t)\right] \hat{\mathbf{i}}$$

Applying Newton's second law of motion,

$$m \frac{d^2 x}{d t^2}=-\frac{I^2 B(t)}{R} \frac{d B}{d t} x(t)-\frac{I^2 B^2(t)}{R} \frac{d x}{d t}\quad\text{.... (i)}$$

which is the required equation.

(ii) If $\mathbf{B}$ is independent of time i.e., $B=$ Constant Or

$$\frac{d B}{d t}=0$$

Substituting the above value in Eq (i), we have

$$\begin{aligned} \frac{d^2 x}{d t^2}+\frac{I^2 B^2}{m R} \frac{d x}{d t} & =0 \\ \text{or}\quad\frac{d v}{d t}+\frac{I^2 B^2}{m R} v & =0 \end{aligned}$$

Integrating using variable separable form of differential equation, we have

$$v=A \exp \left(\frac{-I^2 B^2 t}{m R}\right)$$

Applying given conditions,

$$\begin{aligned} & \text { at } t=0, v=u_0 \\ & v(t)=u_0 \exp \left(-I^2 B^2 t / m R\right) \end{aligned}$$

This is the required equation.

(iii) Since the power consumption is given by $P=I^2 R$

Here,

$$\begin{aligned} I^2 R & =\frac{B^2 I^2 V^2(t)}{R^2} \times R \\ & =\frac{B^2 I^2}{R} u_0^2 \exp \left(-2 I^2 B^2 t I m R\right) \end{aligned}$$

Now, energy consumed in time interval $d t$ is given by energy consumed $=P d t=I^2 R d t$

Therefore, total energy consumed in time $t$

$$\begin{aligned} & \left.=\int_0^t I^2 R d t=\frac{B^2 I^2}{R} u_0^2 \frac{m R}{2 I^2 B^2}\left[1-e^{-\left(l^2 B^2 t / m r\right.}\right)\right] \\ & =\frac{m}{2} u_0^2-\frac{m}{2} v^2(t) \\ & =\text { decrease in kinetic energy. } \end{aligned}$$

This proves that the decrease in kinetic energy of $X Y$ equals the heat lost in $R$.

$O D B A C$ is a fixed rectangular conductor of negligible resistance ( $C O$ is not connected) and $O P$ is a conductor which rotates clockwise with an angular velocity $\omega$ (figure). The entire system is in a uniform magnetic field $\mathbf{B}$ whose direction is along the normal to the surface of the rectangular conductor $A B D C$. The conductor $O P$ is in electric contact with $A B D C$. The rotating conductor has a resistance of $\lambda$ per unit length. Find the current in the rotating conductor, as it rotates by $180^{\circ}$.

Explanation

Let us consider the position of rotating conductor at time interval

$$t=0 \text { to } t=\frac{\pi}{4 \omega}(\text { or } T / 8)$$

the rod $O P$ will make contact with the side $B D$. Let the length $O Q$ of the contact at sometime $t$ such that $0

$$\begin{aligned} \phi & =B \frac{1}{2} Q D \times O D=B \frac{1}{2} l \tan \theta \times l \\ & =\frac{1}{2} B i^2 \tan \theta, \text { where } \theta=\omega t \end{aligned}$$

Applying Faraday's law of EMI,

Thus, the magnitude of the emf generated is $\varepsilon=\frac{d \phi}{d t}=\frac{1}{2} B l^2 \omega \sec ^2 \omega t$

The current is $I=\frac{\varepsilon}{R}$ where $R$ is the resistance of the rod in contact. where, $R \propto \lambda$

$$\begin{aligned} & R=\lambda x=\frac{\lambda l}{\cos \omega t} \\ \therefore\quad & I=\frac{1}{2} \frac{B l^2 \omega}{\lambda l} \sec ^2 \omega t \cos \omega t=\frac{B l \omega}{2 \lambda \cos \omega t} \end{aligned}$$

Let the length $O Q$ of the contact at some timet such that $\frac{\pi}{4 \omega}

$$\begin{aligned} & \phi=\left(l^2+\frac{1}{2} \frac{l^2}{\tan \theta}\right) B \\ \text{where,}\quad & \theta=\omega t \end{aligned}$$

Thus, the magnitude of emf generated in the loop is

$\varepsilon=\frac{d \phi}{d t}=\frac{1}{2} B l^2 \omega \frac{\sec ^2 \omega t}{\tan ^2 \omega t}$

The current is $I=\frac{\varepsilon}{R}=\frac{\varepsilon}{\lambda x}=\frac{\varepsilon \sin \omega t}{\lambda l}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{B l \omega}{\lambda \sin \omega t}$

Similarly for $\frac{3 \pi}{4 \omega} < t < \frac{\pi}{\omega}$ or $\frac{3 T}{8} < t < \frac{T}{2}$, the rod will be in touch with $A C$.

The flux through $O Q A B D$ is given by

$$\phi=\left(2 l^2-\frac{l^2}{2 \tan \omega t}\right) B$$

And the magnitude of emf generated in loop is given by

$$\begin{aligned} & \varepsilon=\frac{d \phi}{d t}=\frac{B \omega l^2 \sec ^2 \omega t}{2 \tan ^2 \omega t} \\ & l=\frac{\varepsilon}{R}=\frac{\varepsilon}{\lambda x}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{B l \omega}{\lambda \sin \omega t} \end{aligned}$$

These are the required expressions.

Consider an infinitely long wire carrying a current $I(t)$, with $\frac{d I}{d t}=\lambda=$ constant. Find the current produced in the rectangular loop of wire $A B C D$ if its resistance is $R$ (figure).

Explanation

Let us consider a strip of length $l$ and width $d r$ at a distance $r$ from infinite long current carrying wire. The magnetic field at strip due to current carrying wire is given by

Field $B(r)=\frac{\propto_0 I}{2 \pi r}$ (out of paper)

Total flux through the loop is

$$\text { Flux }=\frac{\propto_0 I}{2 \pi} l \int_{x_0}^x \frac{d r}{r}=\frac{\propto_0 I}{2 \pi} \ln \frac{x}{x_0}\quad\text{.... (i)}$$

The emf induced can be obtained by differentiating the eq. (i) wrt $t$ and then applying Ohm's law

$$\begin{aligned} &\frac{\varepsilon}{R}=I\\ &\text { We have, induced current }=\frac{1}{R} \frac{d \phi}{d t}=\frac{\varepsilon}{R}=\frac{\propto_0 I}{2 \pi} \frac{\lambda}{R} \ln \frac{x}{x_0}\quad\left(\because \frac{d \mathrm{I}}{d t}=\lambda\right) \end{aligned}$$

$A$ rectangular loop of wire $A B C D$ is kept close to an infinitely long wire carrying a current $I(t)=I_0(1-t / T)$ for $0 \leq t \leq T$ and $I(0)=0$ for $t>T$ (figure.). Find the total charge passing through a given point in the loop, in time $T$. The resistance of the loop is $R$.

Explanation

The emf induced can be obtained by differentiating the expression of magnetic flux linked wrtt and then applying Ohm's law

$$I=\frac{E}{R}=\frac{1}{R} \frac{d \phi}{d t}$$

We know that electric current

$$I(t)=\frac{d Q}{d t} \text { or } \frac{d Q}{d t}=\frac{1}{R} \frac{d \phi}{d t}$$

Integrating the variable separable form of differential equation for finding the charge $Q$ that passed in time $t$, we have

$$\begin{aligned} Q\left(t_1\right)-Q\left(t_2\right) & =\frac{1}{R}\left[\phi\left(t_1\right)-\phi\left(t_2\right)\right] \\ \phi\left(t_1\right) & =L_1 \frac{\alpha_0}{2 \pi} \int_x^{L_2+x} \frac{d x^{\prime}}{x^{\prime}} I\left(t_1\right) \quad\text{[Refer to the Eq. (i) of answer no.25] }\\ & =\frac{\alpha_0 L_1}{2 \pi} I\left(t_1\right) \ln \frac{L_2+x}{x} \end{aligned}$$

The magnitude of charge is given by,

$$\begin{aligned} & =\frac{\propto_0 L_1}{2 \pi} \ln \frac{L_2+x}{x}\left[I_0+0\right] \\ & =\frac{\propto_0 L_1}{2 \pi} I_1 \ln \left(\frac{L_2+x}{x}\right) \end{aligned}$$

This is the required expression.
