Question
Consider the situation of the previous problem.
  1. Calculate the force needed to keep the sliding wire moving with a constant velocity v.
  2. If the force needed just after $t = 0$ is $F_0$, find the time at which the force needed will be $\frac{\text{F}_0}{2}.$

Answer


$\text{e}=\text{Bvl}$
$\text{i}=\frac{\text{e}}{\text{R}}=\frac{\text{Bvl}}{2\text{r}(\text{l}+\text{vt})}$
  1. $\text{F}=\text{ilB}=\frac{\text{Bvl}}{2\text{r}(\text{l}+\text{vt})}\times\text{lB}=\frac{\text{B}^2\text{l}^2\text{v}}{2\text{r}(\text{l}+\text{vt})}$
  2. Just after $\text{t}=0$
$\text{f}_0=\text{ilB}=\text{lB}\Big(\frac{\text{lBv}}{2\text{rl}}\Big)=\frac{\text{l}\text{B}^2\text{v}}{2\text{r}}$

$\frac{\text{f}_0}{2}=\frac{\text{l}\text{B}^2\text{v}}{4\text{r}}=\frac{\text{l}^2\text{B}^2\text{v}}{2\text{r}(\text{l}+\text{vt})}$

$\Rightarrow2\text{l}=\text{l}+\text{vt}$

$\Rightarrow\text{T}=\frac{\text{l}}{\text{v}}$

Is it possible that in a Coolidge tube characteristic $\text{L}_\alpha$ X-rays are emitted but not $\text{K}_\alpha$ X-rays?
A free $^{238}U$ nucleus kept in a train emits an alpha particle. When the train is stationary, a nucleus decays and a passenger measures that the separation between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus becomes x at time t after the decay. If the decay takes place while the train is moving at a uniform velocity v, the distance between the alpha particle and the recoiling nucleus at a time t after the decay as measured by the passenger is:

A 100 turn rectangular coil ABCD (in XY plane) is hung from one arm of a balance (Fig). A mass 500g is added to the other arm to balance the weight of the coil. A current 4.9A passes through the coil and a constant magnetic field of 0.2T acting inward (in xz plane) is switched on such that only arm CD of length 1cm lies in the field. How much additional mass 'm' must be added to regain the balance?
