Faraday's law and Magnetic Fields

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on correcting a formula related to Faraday's law and magnetic fields, emphasizing the need for proper dimensions on the right-hand side of the equation. Participants noted that the formula should simplify to the magnetic field at the center of a circular current loop when x equals zero. There was a clarification regarding the vector form of the expression, which initially lacked the appropriate unit vector notation. After adjustments were made, it was suggested that a reasonable answer should now be achievable. The conversation highlights the importance of precision in mathematical expressions related to electromagnetic theory.

Homework Statement
A very large loop of metal wire with radius 1 meter is driven with a linearly increasing current at a rate of 200 amps/second . A very small metal wire loop with radius 5 cm is positioned a small distance away with its center on the same axis (the loops are coaxial). The small loop experiences an induced emf of 983nV . What is the separation of the loops in meters?

I am not really sure which direction i am moving in with this solution

Check this formula. Note that that the right-hand side does not have the correct dimensions for magnetic field. Also, check the numerical factors in the equation. For ##x = 0## the formula should reduce to the field at the center of a circular current loop.

Otherwise, your approach looks correct.

Oh, thanks a lot, it was a vector form, but without the i hat. Correct expression was this one.

Ok. You should get a reasonable answer now.
 
Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
Thread 'Trying to understand the logic behind adding vectors with an angle between them'
My initial calculation was to subtract V1 from V2 to show that from the perspective of the second aircraft the first one is -300km/h. So i checked with ChatGPT and it said I cant just subtract them because I have an angle between them. So I dont understand the reasoning of it. Like why should a velocity be dependent on an angle? I was thinking about how it would look like if the planes where parallel to each other, and then how it look like if one is turning away and I dont see it. Since...
Thread 'Voltmeter readings for this circuit with switches'
TL;DR Summary: I would like to know the voltmeter readings on the two resistors separately in the picture in the following cases , When one of the keys is closed When both of them are opened (Knowing that the battery has negligible internal resistance) My thoughts for the first case , one of them must be 12 volt while the other is 0 The second case we'll I think both voltmeter readings should be 12 volt since they are both parallel to the battery and they involve the key within what the...
