Question 1

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is

Accepted Answer

The energy stored in an inductor is given by the formula $ \frac{1}{2} L I^2 $. Substituting the given values, $ L = 20 \, \text{mH} = 0.02 \, \text{H} $ and $ I = 5 \, \text{A} $, the energy is $ \frac{1}{2} \times 0.02 \times 5^2 = 0.25 \, \text{J} $.

Question 2

The energy stored in the earth's magnetic field with a strength of 0.5 × 10^-4 T in a room 3.0 m by 4.0 m by 2.4 m is

Accepted Answer

The energy stored in a magnetic field is given by the formula: U = (B²/2μ₀) × Volume. Substituting B = 0.5 × 10⁻⁴ T, μ₀ = 4π × 10⁻⁷ T·m/A, and the volume of the room (3.0 m × 4.0 m × 2.4 m), we find the energy to be approximately 29 mJ.

Question 3

A charged capacitor is connected to an inductor. At time t = 0 the charge on the capacitor is Q = 6μC. At time t = 2 ms the charge on the capacitor is zero for the first time. What is the amplitude of the current at that same instant?

Accepted Answer

The system is an LC circuit undergoing simple harmonic oscillations. The charge on the capacitor and the current in the inductor are related by conservation of energy. At the first instance when the charge is zero, the energy is entirely in the inductor as magnetic energy, which means the current is at its maximum. The maximum current (I_max) can be found using the formula I_max = Q_max * ω, where ω = 2π/T and T = 4 ms (since the charge is zero at t = 2 ms, which is a quarter of the period). Therefore, I_max = 6μC * (2π/4ms) = 4.71 mA.

Question 4

A charged capacitor is connected to an inductor to form an LC circuit with a frequency of oscillation f = 1.6 Hz. At time t = 0 the capacitor is fully charged. At a given instant later the charge on the capacitor is measured to be Q = 3 μC and the current in the circuit is equal to 75 μA. What is the maximum charge of the capacitor?

Question 7

A 25-mH inductor is connected in series with a 20-Ω resistor through a 15-V dc power supply and a switch. If the switch is closed at t = 0 s, what is the current when t = 2.0 ms?

Accepted Answer

The current in the circuit follows the equation:

$$ I(t) = \frac{V}{R}(1-e^{-\frac{R}{L}t}) $$

where V is the voltage of the power supply, R is the resistance, L is the inductance, and t is the time since the switch is closed. Plugging in the given values, we get:

$$ I(t) = \frac{15}{20}(1-e^{-\frac{20}{0.025}t}) $$

When t = 2.0 ms, we have:

$$ I(2.0 	ext{ ms}) = \frac{15}{20}(1-e^{-\frac{20}{0.025}(2 	imes 10^{-3})}) \approx 0.60 	ext{ A} $$

Therefore, the answer is choice C, 0.60 A.

Question 13

Starting from zero, the electric current takes 2 seconds to reach half its maximum possible value in an RL circuit with a resistance R, an inductance L and a battery of emf E. How long will the current take to reach 75% its maximum value (measured from the moment when I = 0)?

Accepted Answer

The time constant τ for an RL circuit is L/R. The current I(t) in an RL circuit is given by I(t) = I_max(1 - e^(-t/τ)). Given that it takes 2 seconds to reach half its maximum value, we can use this to find τ. Solving 0.5 = 1 - e^(-2/τ) gives τ = 2/ln(2). To find the time to reach 75% of the maximum value, solve 0.75 = 1 - e^(-t/τ), which gives t = 4 seconds.
