Length of helix in one time period [closed]

How to find the length of a helix in one time period? In the case of a particle suspended at the origin and a magnetic field along the $y$ axis we know that the time period will be equal to $2\pi/aB$ ...

How does magnetic hysteresis (ie. the $B$-$H$ curve) transform the input-output of a guitar pickup or speaker?

I understand that magnetically dependent equipment like a guitar pickup or speaker are affected by magnetic hysteresis. Here is an article discussing the effect on speakers for example. That article ...

Induce electric field in an incomplete circular conducting loop

I was solving a numerical example(image1) of 'Griffiths book of electrodynamics' And in this solution it is given that if there is a changing magnetic field is there there would be induce induce ...

Internally, what defines whether a material is magnetically hard or soft?

I know that magnetically hard materials hold magnetic fields (magnetic moment alignment) for longer, while soft metals do not. However, what, internally, causes these properties to arise?

Do transformers return current to source when magnetic field collapse at primary coil?

When we close the circut containing an inductor and a battery, the current starts flowing, which builds magnetic field around inductor, changing magnetic field produces its own current in opposite ...

Confused between induced emfs

We know when flux of B changes an EMF is induced in loop And also when a rod moves in mag field Potential difference between its ends is also produced. So is this ques while writing Potential equation ...

Self-inductance of $N$ turns coil to current loop [duplicate]

I saw nice problem, that tricked my mind. The system is: Given that the coil has self-inductance of $L$, with diameter $D$ and $N$ turns. Now we take the coil, and open the turns to form single loop. ...

Mutual inductance - induced magnetic flux in the primary

Let there be two coils, L1 (with self inductance L1), and L2, with self inductance L2. The first coil is connected to a sinusoidal supply, and the second one is connected to a resistor load, as shown ...

Torque on a rotating sphere in a uniform magnetic field

Consider a uniform magnetic field. We know that if we have a conductive loop rotating in this magnetic field then we get a current running through that loop due to Faraday's Law, which in turn exerts ...

Magnetic flux and number of turns

The number of windings is not written in the magnetic flux formulas in high school textbooks, but I come across articles saying that the number of windings affects the magnetic flux formulas. Is this ...

Work done in a moving conducting bar and in a Faraday disk

I deeply apologize for my ignorance, but I am asking this since I still can't seem to grasp what my teachers relayed to me a few days ago about two exercises that I solved in an intrinsically wrong ...

How does any changing magnetic field induce voltage?

Hopefully the title puts in well enough; a charged particle moving in a magnetic field experiences the Lorentz-Force. If this occurs in a wire and part of the circuit is outside the B-Field then a ...

The direction of the induced electric field

Recently I got stuck witht the following problem. Imagine we have uniform a magnetic field which induction points upwards. The fields strength is steadily decreasing. If we put an iron coil ...
