Sometimes we show an idealised magnetic ...

Sometimes we show an idealised magnetic field which is uniform in a given region and falls to zero abruptly. One such field is represented in figure . Using Ampere's law over the path PQRS, show that such a field is not possible.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know `int B dl = mu_oi`
Theoretically , at any point a inside
B = 0
If current passes through the loop PQRS
Then =0
As B at A is zero, so there will be no
interaction, but pracitcally this is not ture.
Thus, such a field is not possibal.

Assume that the magnetic field is uniform in a cubical region and is zero outside. Can you project a charged particle from outside into the field so that the particle describes a complete circle in the field?

Figure-4.76 shows a region of space in which a uniform magnetic induction B_(0) is is present between the planes z = 0 and z = a . Using Ampere's law prove that such a field cannot exist between two planes as described here.

A particle enters the region of a uniform magnetic field as shown in figure. The path of the particle inside the field is shown by dark line. The particle is :
