A coil of radius r is made of N circular loops It is connect
A coil of radius r is made of N circular loops. It is connected top a battery of known emf and internal resistance. The coil produces a magnetic field whose magnitude at the center of the coil is B What physical quantities can you determine using this information?
Solution
The resistance of the circuit is only the internal resistance of the battery as the resistance of the coil is 0
as the net resistance is found above we can calculate the current in the circuit, using the equation:
I = V/R
where V = emf of the battery
R = total resistance of the circuit
From the current we can find out the magnetic dipole momnent using the equation
u = I*A*N
where A = area of the coil
N = number of turns of the coil
So, we can find out:
1) resistance in the circuit
2) current in the circuit
3) magnetic dipole momenet of the coil
