A TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) device creates very rapidly changing magnetic fields. The field near a typical pulsed-field machine rises from 0 T to 2.5 T in 200 μs . Suppose a technician holds his hand near the device so that the axis of his 2.0-cm-diameter wedding band is parallel to the field.

Answer:

A. 3.9 V B. 1.9 fA

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

What emf is induced in the ring as the field changes?

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

The induced emf ε = ΔΦ/Δt where ΔΦ = change in magnetic flux = ΔABcosθ where A = area of coil and B = magnetic field strength, θ = angle between A and B = 0 (since the axis of the ring is parallel )Δt = change in time

ε = ΔΦ/Δt

ε = ΔABcos0°/Δt

ε = AΔB/Δt

A = πd²/4 where d = diameter of ring = 2.0 cm = 2.0 × 10⁻² m, A = π(2.0 × 10⁻² m)²/4 = π4.0 × 10⁻⁴ m²/4 = 3.142 × 10⁻⁴ m², ΔB = change in magnetic field strength = B₁ - B₀ where B₁ = final magnetic field strength = 2.5 T and B₀ = initial magnetic field strength = 0 T. ΔB = B₁ - B₀ = 2.5 T -0 T = 2.5 T and Δt = 200 μs = 200 × 10⁻⁶ s.

So, ε = AΔB/Δt

ε = 3.142 × 10⁻⁴ m² × 2.5 T/200 × 10⁻⁶ s

ε = 7.854 × 10⁻⁴ m²-T/2 × 10⁻⁴ s

ε = 3.926 V

ε ≅ 3.9 V

Part B

If the band is gold with a cross-section area of 4.0 mm2, what is the induced current? Assume the band is of jeweler's gold and its resistivity is 13.2 x 1010 Ω*m.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Since current, i = ε/R where ε = induced emf = 3.926 V and R = resistance of band = ρl/A where ρ = resistivity of band = 13.2 × 10¹⁰ Ωm, l = length of band = πd where d = diameter of band = 2.0 cm = 2.0 × 10⁻² m. So, l = π2.0 × 10⁻² m = 6.283 × 10⁻² m and A = cross-sectional area of band = 4.0 mm² = 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ m².

So, i = ε/R

= ε/ρl/A

= εA/ρl

= 3.926 V × 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ m²/(13.2 × 10¹⁰ Ωm × 6.283 × 10⁻² m)

= ‭15.704‬ × 10⁻⁶ V-m²/(82.9356‬ × 10⁸ Ωm²

= 0.1894 × 10⁻¹⁴ A

= 1.894 × 10⁻¹⁵ A

≅ 1.9 fA
