The B field would look like this:hutchphd said:
Motion of the particle is not symmetric and flux is zero only when particle is centered exactly in loop. Look again.versine said:
I disagree. If normal bar magnet passes through the loop, the current rises, goes to zero, then reverses direction. If a magnetic monopole passes through the loop the current rises but never returns to zero (barring resistive dissapation). Can you see why? For an explanation please read the link in my post #3.versine said:
A magnetic monopole is a hypothetical particle that has only one magnetic pole, either a north or a south pole, unlike regular magnets which have both poles. This means that a magnetic monopole would have a net magnetic charge, unlike regular magnets which have a net neutral charge.
When a magnetic monopole passes through a wire loop, it induces a changing magnetic field. This changing magnetic field creates an electric field, which in turn causes a current to flow in the wire loop. This phenomenon is known as electromagnetic induction.
As of now, there is no direct evidence for the existence of magnetic monopoles. However, some theories in physics, such as Grand Unified Theories and String Theory, predict the existence of magnetic monopoles. Additionally, there have been some potential sightings of magnetic monopoles in particle accelerators, but these have not been confirmed.
Yes, a magnetic monopole can pass through any type of wire loop, as long as the loop is made of a conductive material. The conductive material allows for the flow of electric current induced by the changing magnetic field of the monopole.
If magnetic monopoles were to be discovered and harnessed, they could potentially have a wide range of applications. For example, they could be used in more efficient electric motors, generators, and energy storage devices. They could also have applications in medical imaging and particle accelerators.
