Magnetic Circuits, Air Gaps (conceptual)

AI Thread Summary
In magnetic circuits, if fringing is ignored, the flux density in the air gap equals that in the core, indicating uniformity in flux density across the circuit. The flux remains consistent throughout the series circuit, while variations occur in the permeability of different materials and the magnetizing force. This principle is supported by worked examples from provided resources. Understanding these concepts is crucial for analyzing magnetic circuits effectively. The discussion emphasizes the importance of these relationships in practical applications.

Homework Statement


When dealing with magnetic circuits, if the question explicitly states to ignore fringing, then the flux density of the gap will equal the flux density of the core, correct? In fact, if there are ever more materials, the flux density throughout the entire circuit (series) will have the same flux, and flux density. The only thing that will vary is the permeability of each material as well as the magnetizing force, correct?

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...
