How Does a Magnetic Field Affect Charge Flow onto a Capacitor?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around calculating the total charge that flows onto a capacitor connected to a coil of wire being removed from a magnetic field. Key parameters include a 10-turn coil with a diameter of 1.0 cm, a resistance of 200 mΩ, a magnetic field strength of 1.0 mT, and a capacitor of 1.0 µF. The main challenge is identifying the appropriate equations to use for this calculation. Participants clarify that the radius of the coil is 0.005 m, correcting an earlier miscalculation. The focus remains on guiding the original poster to the right equations for solving the problem.

Homework Statement



A 10-turn coil of wire having a diameter of 1.0 cm and a
resistance of 200m Ω is placed in a 1.0 mT magnetic field. The
coil is connected to an uncharged 1.0µF capacitor. The coil is
quickly pulled out of the magnetic field. Determine the total
charge which flows onto the capacitor.

Homework Equations


I am not sure.


The Attempt at a Solution


I have no idea how to approach this question as I do not know which equation to use.
All I know is that:
N = 10
r = 0.01
R = 0.2
B = 10^-3
C = 10^-6
Now.. figuring out which equation to use is the problem..
If you could point me to the right direction I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks for your help.

the radius isn't .01 like u said it is .005 being that the diameter is 1 cmu need to divide that by 2 to get the radius
 
I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
