The correct Answer is:
To find the average force on each electron in the coil due to the magnetic field, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Number of turns in the coil (N) = 20 - Radius of the coil (r) = 10 cm = 0.1 m - Magnetic field (B) = 0.1 T - Current in the coil (I) = 5.0 A - Cross-sectional area of the wire (A) = \(10^{-5} m^2\) - Free electron density in copper (n) = \(10^{29} m^{-3}\) - Charge of an electron (e) = \(1.6 \times 10^{-19} C\) ### Step 2: Calculate the drift velocity (V) of electrons The drift velocity (V) can be calculated using the formula: \[ V = \frac{I}{n \cdot e \cdot A} \] Where: - \(I\) = current (5.0 A) - \(n\) = free electron density (\(10^{29} m^{-3}\)) - \(e\) = charge of an electron (\(1.6 \times 10^{-19} C\)) - \(A\) = cross-sectional area (\(10^{-5} m^2\)) Substituting the values: \[ V = \frac{5.0}{(10^{29}) \cdot (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \cdot (10^{-5})} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the drift velocity (V) Calculating the denominator: \[ n \cdot e \cdot A = (10^{29}) \cdot (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \cdot (10^{-5}) = 1.6 \times 10^{5} \] Now substituting back to find V: \[ V = \frac{5.0}{1.6 \times 10^{5}} = 3.125 \times 10^{-5} m/s \] ### Step 4: Calculate the magnetic force (F) on each electron The magnetic force on each electron can be calculated using the formula: \[ F = e \cdot V \cdot B \] Substituting the values: \[ F = (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \cdot (3.125 \times 10^{-5}) \cdot (0.1) \] ### Step 5: Calculate the force (F) Calculating the force: \[ F = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \cdot 3.125 \times 10^{-6} = 5.0 \times 10^{-25} N \] ### Final Answer The average force on each electron in the coil due to the magnetic field is \(5.0 \times 10^{-25} N\). ---
