What is the value of induced magnetic field?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the induced magnetic field in a system of concentric metallic shells with a charged wire along the axis. The user derives expressions for the electric field and surface charge densities on the inner and outer shells, concluding that the magnetic fields from the inner and outer shells cancel each other out in certain regions. They identify that the magnetic field is zero for regions outside the shells and inside the inner shell, while it is non-zero between the shells. The final expression for the magnetic field in the region between the shells is confirmed as B = μ₀ω(ε-1)λ/(2επ). The user seeks verification of their calculations and receives affirmation on their approach.

Homework Statement


Two coencenteric metalic shell has inner radius $r_1$ outer radius $r_2$. We place along axis infinity wire has $\lambda$ charge in per unit length. The inner region of metalic shells inserted with relative permabilitty coefficent $\epsilon$. This system rotates with $\omega$ angular velocity. What is the value of induced magnetic field?

The Attempt at a Solution


\begin{equation}
\rho_b=-\nabla.{P}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
P=(\epsilon-1)\epsilon_0.E
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
E=\lambda\div({2\pi.\epsilon\epsilon_0.r})
\end{equation}
If we placed to first equation we get:
\begin{equation}
\rho_b=0
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\sigma_b=P.n
\end{equation}
where is n is unit vector
for outer metalic shell:
\begin{equation}
\sigma_b(r_2)=P(r_2)=(\epsilon-1)\epsilon_0\lambda\div({2\pi.\epsilon\epsilon_0.r_2})
\end{equation}
for inner metalic shell:
\begin{equation}
\sigma_b(r_1)=-P(r_1)=-(\epsilon-1)\epsilon_0\lambda\div({2\pi.\epsilon\epsilon_0.r_1})
\end{equation}
For charge for the inner shell
\begin{equation}
\sigma_1.2\pi.r_1.h=q_1
\end{equation}
For charge for the outer shell
\begin{equation}
\sigma_2.2\pi.r_2.h=q_2
\end{equation}
For current
\begin{equation}
i=q/T
\end{equation}
when we calculate current inner and outer's effect of magnetic field canceled. Where is the mistake if there is? Or what variables cause to magnetic field? HELP PLEASE
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Your work looks good, but you didn't show how you are calculating the B field. Are you getting that B = 0 everywhere?
 
sorry, i will continue:
$\sigma_2$ positive, $\sigma_1$ is negative; so current of outer sphere is anticlockwise, current of inner sphere is clockwise.
\begin{equation}
i_1=q_1\div{T}=\sigma_1.2.\pi.r_1h\div{2\pi/\omega}=\sigma_1.\omega.r_1.h
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
i_2=q_2\div{T}=\sigma_2.2.\pi.r_2h\div{2\pi/\omega}=\sigma_2.\omega.r_2.h
\end{equation}
The direction of magnetic field is up. now let's consider the r<$r_1$ region. We think this system like selenoid.
\begin{equation}
B=\mu_0.i\div{h}
\end{equation}
In the this region magnetic field directions are opposite and canceled. Also in the region $r>r_2$ canceled. But the magnetic field in the region$r_2>r>r$ they don't canceled. (I found my mistake)
\begin{equation}
B_1=0 for this region.TSny pointed out.
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
B_2=\mu_0.\sigma_2.\omega.r_2.h\div{h}=\mu_0.\sigma_2.\omega.r_2
\end{equation}
And i obtain
\begin{equation}
B=\mu_0.\omega.\sigma_2.r_2
\end{equation}
If i put \sigma_2. value:
\begin{equation}
B=\mu_0.\omega.(\epsilon-1)\lambda\div({2\epsilon.\pi})
\end{equation}
Do you see any error in my calculations?

That all looks correct to me.
 
so thanks
 
Oh wait. Sorry. I think you are right that B = 0 for ##r< r_1## and ##r > r_2##. But I don't think you have the correct expression for ##r_1 < r < r_2.##.

For an ideal solenoid, what is B outside the solenoid?
 
ohhh yes you are correct i'll edit now.

##B=\mu_0.\omega.(\epsilon-1)\lambda\div({2\epsilon.\pi})##
OK.
