    Magnetic Force on Wire 2: Verification Needed

    1. Wire 1 is oriented along the y-axis and carries a current I1. A rectangular loop located to the right of the wire in the xy-plane carries a current I2. Find the magnetic force exerted by wire 1 on the top wire of length b in the loop labeled "Wire 2" in the figure.2. F = IL x B 3. Attached...

    Biot-Savart and a Rectangular Loop

    Homework Statement Consider the figure on the right. Wire 1 is oriented along the y-axis and carries a current I1. A rectangular loop located to the right of the wire in the xy-plane carries a current I2. Find the magnetic force exerted by wire 1 on the top wire of length b in the loop...

    Finding current and potential difference within a circuit

    So for part B) I found that the potential difference from c to f could be expressed using the equation: Vc - E2 + i2R2 = Vf Reworking the equation to get Vc - Vf on one side of the equation and after plugging in I found the potential difference to 54.4 Volts.

    Finding current and potential difference within a circuit

    So I reworked part a) trying to follow what you guys recommended. I applied Cramer's rule as I managed to find something similar in my notes after all and this is what I got. It ended up in milliamp like gneill said so I hope this is the right answer. Can anyone confirm this please? I am...

    Finding current and potential difference within a circuit

    1. For the circuit shown, (a) Find the current in each resistor (b) Find the potential difference between c and fHomework Equations :[/B] i2 + i1 = i3 i = V/R3. (a) So solving for each resistor using the loop rule this is what I got, (Resistor 3): E3 - IR3 = -E2 - E1 (Resistor 2): -E2 - IR2 =...

    What is the relationship between electric potential and electric field?

    So when plotting the graph correctly this time it still formed a straight line, but with a steeper slope. So from there would I find the slope using (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) and then work that into the equation for a line y = mx + b? (10 - 2)/(0.06 - 0.03) = 266.7 V/m Then solving for b in the...

    What is the relationship between electric potential and electric field?

    Okay, I graphed it wrong then I'll work on fixing that. But what about deriving an empirical equation. I'm still having trouble getting started on what to do.

    What is the relationship between electric potential and electric field?

    Q1: Use the graph (see attachment) to write the empirical equation V(r) for a charge cylindrical shell with appropriate constants, including units. Show all work. Q2: What is the interpretation of the horizontal axis intercept? Q3: What is the significance of the slope of the graph? I...
