Chapter 30 Problem 30.109

Question

One possible concern with MRI (see Exercise 28) is turning the magnetic field on or off too quickly. Bodily fluids are conductors, and a changing magnetic field could cause electric currents to flow through the patient. Suppose a typical patient has a maximum crosssection area of 0.060 m2 . What is the smallest time interval in which a 5.0 T magnetic field can be turned on or off if the induced emf around the patients body must be kept to less than 0.10 V?

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 30 problem number 109 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: One possible concern with MRI (see Exercise 28) is turning the magnetic field on or off too quickly. Bodily fluids are conductors, and a changing magnetic field could cause electric currents to flow through the patient. Suppose a typical patient has a maximum crosssection area of 0.060 m2 . What is the smallest time interval in which a 5.0 T magnetic field can be turned on or off if the induced emf around the patients body must be kept to less than 0.10 V?
From the textbook chapter Electromagnetic Induction you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
