Question : 17 of 17
Marks: +1, -0
A line charge λ per unit length is lodged uniformly onto the rim of a wheel of mass M and radius R. The wheel has light non-conducting spokes and is free to rotate without friction about its axis. A uniform magnetic field extends over a circular region within the rim. It is given by
B\vec{B} = - B0k^\widehat{B_{0k}} (r ≤ a ; a < R)
= 0 (otherwise)
What is the angular velocity of the wheel after the field is suddenly switched off?
Solution:  
According to Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction the induced emf is ε = – dϕdt\frac{d\phi}{dt}
Thus a relation between electric field and rate of change of flux can be established.
ε = - ∫ Edl\vec{E}\cdot\vec{dl} = - dϕdt\frac{d\phi}{dt}
E\vec{E} exist along circumference of radius ‘a’ due to change in magnetic flux.
E ∫ dl = - ddt(πa2B)\frac{d}{dt}(\pi a^2 B) , E × 2πa = - πa2dBdt\pi a^2 \frac{dB}{dt}
E = - a2dBdt\frac{a}{2} \frac{dB}{dt} ... (i)
Linear charge density on rim is λ. So, total charge on rim Q = λ2πa ...(ii)
Electric Force on the charge
F = QE = πa2λdBdt-\pi a^2 \lambda \frac{dB}{dt} ⇒ m dvdt\frac{dv}{dt} = - πa2\pi a^2 λ dBdt\frac{dB}{dt}
In terms of angular velocity v = Rω
m ddt\frac{d}{dt} (Rω) = - πa2λdBdt\pi a^2 \lambda \frac{dB}{dt}
mR dω = - πa2λdB\pi a^2 \lambda dB
dω = - πa2λmR\frac{\pi a^2 \lambda}{m R} dB
Integrating both sides, ω = - πa2λBmR\frac{\pi a^2 \lambda B}{m R}
As direction of angular velocity is along axis.
ω\omega^{\rightarrow} = - λa2πmRBk^\frac{\lambda a^2 \pi}{m R} \widehat{Bk}
