Question
A conducting disc of radius r rotates with a small but constant angular velocity $\omega$ about its axis. A uniform magnetic field B exists parallel to the axis of rotation. Find the motional emf between the centre and the periphery of the disc.

Answer


V at a distance $\frac{\text{r}}{2}$
From the centre $=\frac{\text{r}\omega}{2}$
$\text{E}=\text{BlV}$
$\Rightarrow\text{E}=\text{B}\times\text{r}\times\frac{\text{r}\omega}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\text{B}\text{r}^2\omega$

In 1959 Lyttleton and Bondi suggested that the expansion of the Universe could be explained if matter carried a net charge. Suppose that the Universe is made up of hydrogen atoms with a number density N, which is maintained a constant. Let the charge on the proton be: $e_p= -(1 + y)e$ where e is the electronic charge.
Show that the velocity of expansion is proportional to the distance from the centre.
