Question

A rectangular 12.0cm by 18.0cm circuit carrying an 8.00Acurrent is oriented with its plane parallel to a uniform 0.760Tmagnetic field.

Part A

Find the magnitude of the magnetic force on each segment (ab, bc, etc.) of this circuit.

Answer in the order indicated. Separate your answers with commas.

Fab,Fbc,Fcd,Fda = ________________ N

Part B

Find the direction of the force on the segment ab.

Part D

Find the direction of the force on the segment cd.

Part E

Find the direction of the force on the segment da.

Part F

Find the magnitude of the net force on the entire circuit.

F= _________________ N

The Force is directed into the page. The Force is directed out of the page. The Force is zero.

Explanation / Answer

Fab = I*L*B*sin90 = 8*0.12*0.76*1 = 0.7296 N   into the page

Fbc = I*L*B*sin0 = 0 N


Fcd = I*L*B*sin90 = 8*0.12*0.76*1 = 0.7296 N out of the page


Fda = I*L*B*sin0 = 0 N


part B)


The Force is directed into the page.

part D)


The Force is directed out of the page.


partE)

The Force is zero

part F)

F = Fab+Fbc+Fcd+Fda = 0
