(a) Calculate the self-inductance (in mH) of a 55.0 cm long, 10.0 cm diameter solenoid having 1000 loops.

(b) How much energy (in J) is stored in this inductor when 19.5 A of current flows through it?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

(a) We have,

Length of solenoid, l = 55 cm = 0.55 m

Diameter of the solenoid, d = 10 cm

Radius, r = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Number of loops in the solenoid is 1000.

(a) The self inductance in the solenoid is given by :

[tex]L=\dfrac{\mu_o N^2A}{l}[/tex]

A is area

[tex]L=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times (1000)^2\times \pi (0.05)^2}{0.55}\\\\L=0.0179\ H\\\\L=17.9\ mH[/tex]

(b) The energy stored in the inductor is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{1}{2}LI^2\\\\E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0179\times (19.5)^2\\\\E=3.4\ J[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

a. The self-inductance (in mH) should be 17.9 mH.

b. The energy should be stored should be 3.4 J.

Calculation of the self-inductance and energy:

Since

Length of solenoid, l = 55 cm = 0.55 m

Diameter of the solenoid, d = 10 cm

Radius, r = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Number of loops in the solenoid is 1000.

a.

Now the self inductance should be

= 4π *10^*7*(1000)^2 * π(0.05)^2/ 0.55

= 0.0179 H

= 17.9 mH

b.

Now the energy should be

= 1/2 * 0.0179 * (19.5)^2

= 3.4 J
