A ring of mass 4 kg is uniformly charged with a linear charge density λ = 4 C cm - 1 and kept on a rough horizontal surface with a friction coefficient of μ = π 4 . A time-varying magnetic field B = B 0 t 2 is applied in a circular region of radius a a < r perpendicular to the plane of the ring as shown in the figure. Find out the time when the ring just starts to rotate on the surface. (take a = 5 cm , g = 10 m s -
Correct answer
4
Step-by-step solution
Induced electric field, E ( 2 πr ) = dφ dt E = πa 2 2 B 0 t 2 πr Torque due to field about centre of ring, τ 1 = ( qE ) r = ( λ ( 2 πr ) ) 2 πa 2 B 0 t 2 πr r The ring starts rotating when, τ due to electric field = τ due to friction. τ 1 = μmg r Solving, t = μmg 2 πa 2 B 0 λ = 4   s .
