The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the radial force acting per unit length on a thin wire ring located inside a long solenoid, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understanding the Setup We have a thin wire ring of radius \( a \) and resistance \( r \) inside a long solenoid of length \( l \) and cross-sectional radius \( b \). The solenoid is connected to a constant voltage source \( V \). ### Step 2: Magnetic Field Inside the Solenoid The magnetic field \( B \) inside a long solenoid is given by: \[ B = \mu_0 n I \] where \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space, \( n \) is the number of turns per unit length of the solenoid, and \( I \) is the current flowing through the solenoid. ### Step 3: Induced EMF in the Ring When the solenoid is connected to the voltage source, a current \( I \) flows through it, creating a changing magnetic field. The magnetic flux \( \Phi \) through the ring is given by: \[ \Phi = B \cdot A = B \cdot \pi a^2 = \mu_0 n I \cdot \pi a^2 \] The induced EMF \( \mathcal{E} \) in the ring can be calculated using Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction: \[ \mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi}{dt} \] ### Step 4: Current in the Ring The current \( I' \) in the ring due to the induced EMF is given by Ohm's law: \[ I' = \frac{\mathcal{E}}{r} \] ### Step 5: Force on the Ring The force \( F \) acting on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field is given by: \[ F = I' L B \] where \( L \) is the length of the conductor (in this case, the circumference of the ring, \( 2\pi a \)). The force per unit length \( f \) is given by: \[ f = \frac{F}{L} = I' B \] ### Step 6: Substitute Values Substituting the expression for \( I' \) into the force per unit length: \[ f = \left(\frac{\mathcal{E}}{r}\right) B \] Now substituting \( \mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi}{dt} \) and \( B = \mu_0 n I \): \[ f = \left(\frac{-\frac{d}{dt}(\mu_0 n I \cdot \pi a^2)}{r}\right) B \] ### Step 7: Final Expression After substituting and simplifying, we can express the radial force per unit length acting on the ring as: \[ f = \frac{\mu_0 n^2 \pi a^2 V^2}{r l^2} e^{-\frac{R}{L}t} \left(1 - e^{-\frac{R}{L}t}\right) \] ### Conclusion Thus, the radial force acting per unit length on the ring can be expressed in terms of the parameters of the solenoid and the ring. ---
