Review Problem 2
How does your credit card work?
The stripe on the back of a credit card is a magnetic stripe, often called a
magstripe. The magstripe is made up of tiny iron-based magnetic particles in a
plastic-like film. Each particle is really a tiny bar magnet about 20-millionths of
an inch long.
The magstripe can be "written" because the tiny bar magnets can be
magnetized in either a north or south pole direction. The magstripe on the back
of the card is very similar to a piece of cassette tape .
A magstripe reader (you may have seen one hooked to someone's PC at a
bazaar or fair) can understand the information on the three-track stripe.

Review Example 1: Flying duck
A duck flying horizontally due north at 15 m/s passes over Atlanta, where the
magnetic field of the Earth is 5.0×10-5T in a direction 60° below a horizontal
line running north and south. The duck has a positive charge of 4.0×10-8C.
What is the magnetic force acting on the duck?

Review Example 2: Wire in Earth’s B Field
A wire carries a current of 22 A from east to west. Assume that at this location
the magnetic field of the earth is horizontal and directed from south to north,
and has a magnitude of 0.50 x 10-4 T. Find the magnetic force on a 36-m length
of wire. What happens if the direction of the current is reversed?
B=0.50 x 10-4 T.

shape of an equilateral triangle. If the loop is placed in a constant magnetic
field of magnitude 0.500T, determine the maximum torque that acts on it.

Galvanometer used as Ammeter
Typical galvanometer have an internal resistance of the order of
60 W - that could significantly disturb (reduce) a current
measurement.
Built to have full scale for small current ~ 1 mA or less.
Must therefore be mounted in parallel with a small resistor or
shunt resistor.

• Let’s convert a 60 W, 1 mA full scale galvanometer to an
ammeter that can measure up to 2 A current.
• Rp must be selected such that when 2 A passes through the
ammeter, only 0.001 A goes through the galvanometer.

R p  0.03002W
• Rp is rather small!
• The equivalent resistance of the circuit is also small!

Galvanometer used as Voltmeter
• Finite internal resistance of a galvanometer must also
addressed if one wishes to use it as voltmeter.
• Must mounted a large resistor in series to limit the current
going though the voltmeter to 1 mA.
• Must also have a large resistance to avoid disturbing
circuit when measured in parallel.

19.8 Magnetic Field of a long straight wire
Danish scientist Hans Oersted (1777-1851) discovered
somewhat by accident that an electric current in a wire
deflects a nearby compass needle.
In 1820, he performed a simple experiment with many
compasses that clearly showed the presence of a
magnetic field around a wire carrying a current.

Magnetic Field due to Currents
The passage of a steady current in a wire produces a
magnetic field around the wire.

If the wire is grasped in the right hand with the thumb in the
direction of the current, the fingers will curl in the direction of
the field.

products of the field by the length of the segment is
equal to o times the current.
