The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the magnitude of the electric field strength in the wire ring surrounding the solenoid. The solenoid produces a changing magnetic field, which induces an electromotive force (emf) in the ring according to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Magnetic Field**: The magnetic induction (B) produced by the solenoid varies with time as \( B = bt \), where \( b \) is a constant. 2. **Apply Faraday's Law**: According to Faraday's law, the induced emf (\( \mathcal{E} \)) in the ring is given by: \[ \mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} \] where \( \Phi_B \) is the magnetic flux through the ring. 3. **Calculate the Magnetic Flux**: The magnetic flux \( \Phi_B \) through the ring is given by: \[ \Phi_B = B \cdot A = B \cdot \pi a^2 \] where \( A \) is the area of the ring, and \( a \) is the radius of the cross-section of the solenoid. 4. **Differentiate the Magnetic Flux**: Since \( B = bt \), we have: \[ \Phi_B = (bt) \cdot \pi a^2 \] Now, differentiate \( \Phi_B \) with respect to time \( t \): \[ \frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} = \pi a^2 b \] 5. **Calculate the Induced EMF**: Substitute the expression for \( \frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} \) into Faraday's law: \[ \mathcal{E} = -\frac{d\Phi_B}{dt} = -\pi a^2 b \] 6. **Determine the Current in the Ring**: The ring has two halves with different resistances. Let the resistance of one half be \( R_1 = \eta R \) and the other half \( R_2 = R \). The total resistance \( R_{total} \) is: \[ R_{total} = R_1 + R_2 = \eta R + R = (\eta + 1) R \] 7. **Calculate the Current**: Using Ohm's law, the current \( I \) in the ring can be calculated as: \[ I = \frac{\mathcal{E}}{R_{total}} = \frac{-\pi a^2 b}{(\eta + 1) R} \] 8. **Find the Electric Field Strength**: The electric field \( E \) in the ring can be found using the relationship between the electric field and the current: \[ E = \frac{\mathcal{E}}{L} \] where \( L \) is the circumference of the ring, \( L = 2\pi a \). Thus: \[ E = \frac{-\pi a^2 b}{(\eta + 1) R \cdot 2\pi a} = \frac{-a b}{2(\eta + 1) R} \] ### Final Result: The magnitude of the electric field strength in the ring is: \[ E = \frac{ab}{2(\eta + 1) R} \]
