Chapter 29 Problem 37

Question

Review. A rod of mass 0.720 kg and radius 6.00 cm rests on two parallel rails (Fig. P29.37) that are d 5 12.0 cm apart and L 5 45.0 cm long. The rod carries a current of I 5 48.0A in the direction shown and rolls along the rails without slipping. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.240T is directed perpendicular to the rod and the rails. If it starts from rest, what is the speed of the rod as it leaves the rails?

Solution

Step 1 of 7)

The first step in solving 29 problem number 37 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Review. A rod of mass 0.720 kg and radius 6.00 cm rests on two parallel rails (Fig. P29.37) that are d 5 12.0 cm apart and L 5 45.0 cm long. The rod carries a current of I 5 48.0A in the direction shown and rolls along the rails without slipping. A uniform magnetic field of magnitude 0.240T is directed perpendicular to the rod and the rails. If it starts from rest, what is the speed of the rod as it leaves the rails?
From the textbook chapter Magnetic Fields you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
