We’re going to think about other possible sources for magnetic fields. Recall that the source of magnetic fields in permanent magnets is aligned electron orbits(electrons going in circles all the same direction so the circles are parallel and they are either all traveling clockwise or counter clockwise).

  1. Where do electric fields come from? Draw an electric field diagram for each of the two types of source.
  2. Pick a spot in one of your field diagrams. How would you determine the electric field there (There’s an equation we used that is closely related to the force on a charge there)? Now, take the same point, but move your source an inch to the right. What is the electric field at that point now?
  3. Now, an electron orbit generates a magnetic field. What else does it generate (this is directly related to the answer of question 2)? Is that second thing static (constant) or time-dependent (moving)?
  4. Now, why might a circuit generate a magnetic field (Think about questions 2 and 3)? Why?
  5. If you wanted to make a wire generate a big magnetic field, how might you design it and why (There are many ways to get to this conclusion)? Congratulations, you have designed an inductor. Place this object in a circuit and it will prevent changes in current.

Transverse waves on a string have wave speed v = 8.00 m/s, amplitude A = 0.0700 m, and wavelength λ = 0.320 m. The waves travel in the -x direction, and at t = 0 the x =0 end of the string has its maximum upward displacement.

1) Find the frequency of these waves.

2) Find the period of these waves.

3) Find the wave number of these waves.

4) Write a wave function describing the wave. Express your answer in terms of x and t. Use π as constant.

5) Find the transverse displacement of a particle at x = 0.360 m at time t = 0.150 s. Express your answer in meters.

6) How much time must elapse from the instant in part E until the particle at x = 0.360 m next has maximum upward displacement? Express your answer in seconds.

A membrane is fouled with a layer of bacteria (a bioflim). The water permeability of the biofilm is 2 x 10-12 mol m s-1 m-2 atm-1 and is 21 μm thick. The membrane is 52 μm thick with a water permeability of 1 x 10-12 mol m s-1 m-2 atm-1. Neglect the convective mass transfer resistance as they are very small.

The partial pressure of water of one side is 200 kPa and 101 kPa on the other.

Calculate the total mass flux of water through the combined membrane and biofilm in mol m-2 s-1 (3 SF) eg 1.67E-8.

In the perfectly elastic case, is there another mathematical expression for the velocities that conserves both momentum and energy? If so, what is it, and why do we neglect this possibility? If not, show this (calculate v1f and v2f from v1i and v2iwhile making sure you do not have any holes in your argument along the way - e.g., do you ever divide by something that could be zero?).

A soap film (n = 1.33) is formed in a loop of wire that is mounted vertically is not exactly uniform in thickness because of its weight, but wedge-shaped in cross section. When the film is illuminated with violet light of wavelength 405 nm, one sees that a distance of 2.20 cm separates two bright fringes that are 4 orders apart. By how much does the film differ in thickness over this distance?

For astronomy class, please answer this question clearly, thank you .

Titan’s atmosphere contains a large amount of photosensitive methane. We know because of basic physics and chemistry that there must be a source of methane on Titan that replenishes the atmospheric methane.

a) Describe what astronomers thought might be occurring on Titan before the Cassini/Huygens mission.

b) Describe the findings of the Cassini/Huygens mission that either supported or disproved the original hypotheses.

The potential energy of a magnetic moment in an external magnetic field is U = -...

The potential energy of a magnetic moment in an external magnetic field is U = - ??B. U is smallest when B is parallel to ? and largest when it is antiparallel. Since the magnetic moment of the electron is directed opposite to its spin (because it has a negative charge), the electron’s energy is highest when the spin is parallel to B. The two possible energy states for the electron are the spin up state (ms = 1212) and the spin down state (ms = - 1212). Calculate the energy difference ?E (in eV) between these states if the electron is placed in a magnetic field of B = 1.1 T. Assume that n = 10 and l = 0 for the electron.

If these electrons are bombarded with photons that have an energy equal to this energy difference ?E, then the electrons can be excited from the spin down state to the spin up state. This is referred to as a “spin flip” transition and the technique is called Electron Spin Resonance (ESR). Find the wavelength of the photons (in meters) that are needed to excite such spin flip transitions.

What type of electromagnetic wave has this wavelength?
