Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 2ICA
An inductor is an electrical device that can store energy in the form of a magnetic field. In the simplest form, an inductor is a cylindrical coil of wire, and its inductance (L), measured in henrys [H), can be calculated by
Where
µ0 =.permeability of free space=4π × 10-7 [newtons per ampere squared, N/ A2]
n = number of turns of wire [dimensionless]
A = cross-sectional area of coil [square meters, m2]
l = length of coil [meters, m]
L = inductance [henrys, H] = [J /A2]
Several inductors were fabricated with the same number of turns of wire (n) and the same length (ℓ), but with different diameters, thus different cross-sectional areas (A). The inductances were measured and plotted as a function of cross-sectional area, and a mathematical model was developed to describe the relationship, as shown on the following graph.
- a. What are the units of the slope (9.66)?
- b. For an inductor fabricated as described above, what is its diameter if its inductance is 0.4 henrys?
Give your answer in centimeters.
- c. If the length of the coil (ℓ) equals 0.2 meter, how many turns of wire (n) are in the inductor?

a) Sydney tap-water has a fluid electrical conductivity (EC or σ) of approximately 210μS/cm. Express this in terms of Ohm metres (resistivity) and mS/m (conductivity).
b) The fluid electrical conductivity (EC) was measured on a water sample first at 25 °C to 305 μS/cm, then later at 20 °C to 272 μS/cm. Assuming a linear relationship, calculate the EC at 10 and 30 °C.
c) A 20 cm long cylinder with 10 cm diameter is filled with an undisturbed fully saturated sandstone core. A current (I) of 100 mA was passed through the cylinder and a voltage(V) of 10,700 V was measured. Calculate the resistance and the resistivity of the sample.
d) If we further know that the porosity is 1%, can you estimate the fluid electrical conductivity?
An aluminum plate measuring 15 cm long, 10 cm wide and 1 cm thick was cooled in air. At the time of cooling, the ambient temperature was equal to 23 °C. Experimental data were measured and are shown in Table 1.
