How does the Copper wire in the second solenoid affect the result?

lol, i remember this q, i completely screwed it cuz i mis read what it meant...

basically 1st 1 would cause charge separationin the solenoid, so there may be an initail reaction it wouldnt really move with the motor effect as experienced by 2nd 1, which has a closed circuit.

EDIT: a quick search found this thread: http://www.boredofstudies.org/community/showthread.php?t=17485&page=1&pp=15

can't help myself spammin here: as constrip8ed said...

btw: still can't forget the excitment of post exams... both hsc and first sem exams... =) makin me want to do hsc again =S

look in the 2003 HSC physics exam forum.. we were arguing this question. and mr timmy decided to argue against everyone.. 97:D

Responding to post below me cause Im special
It would act like a laminated coil. The effect would be negligble.

I had a look at the the question, and the thread as well.

Now i understand that first coil will be induced an emf that forms eddy current.
and the second one produce a flow of current which acts as electromagnet.

Now , people in the that thread seem to agree that only second coil will move to the left.
But the first one wont?

why?

when you drop a magnet throu a cylinder, doesnt it experience opposing magnetic created by the eddy current?thus a opposing force slowin it down?

if so, then both coil should move,the magnitude would be determine by which (eddy or normal current) produce the strongest field, isnt that right?

this question is easy
since it is four marks you have to talk about four thing
in figure 1 no current will be induced because the circuit is not complete
figure 2 will have induce current due to a complete circuit, bu Lenz's law the current set up will oppose what ever created it setting up a North pole.

Its a good idea to looking at the notes from the markers found at the board site.
For 2003

4 Marks
• Fully explains both investigations which could include
– Investigation 1: Since the solenoid is not in a circuit, no current can be
induced by the magnetic field. No current → no induced magnetic field
→ no motion.
– Investigation 2: The circuit is closed, so magnet induces current in
solenoid. Lenz’s law says the current will produce a magnetic field
opposing the changing field that induced it. So direction of induced
field is opposite to field of magnet. They repel, and solenoid moves to
the LEFT. Includes both a description of Lenz’s law and gets direction
of motion correct

3 Marks
• Explains both investigations
• Mentions Lenz’s law OR gets direction of motion correct

2 Marks
• Briefly explains both investigations
OR
• Full explanation of either investigation

1 Mark

• Solenoid moves in investigation 2 but not in investigation 1
OR
• Brief explanation of investigation 1 (no circuit, no motion)
OR
• Brief explanation of investigation 2
OR
• EMF induced in coil 1 because of the motion of the magnet
• OR
• No current produced in coil 1 but is in coil 2
