An Electromagnetic Flowmeter Is Useful When It Is Desirable Not vv

Question 24

Multiple Choice

An electromagnetic flowmeter is useful when it is desirable not to interrupt the system in which the fluid is flowing (such as the blood in an artery during heart surgery) . Such a device is illustrated in the figure. The conducting fluid moves with speed vv in a tube of diameter dd . Perpendicular to this tube is a magnetic field B. A voltage VV is induced between opposite sides of the tube due to the motion of the conducting fluid in the magnetic field. For a certain case, B=B = 0.120 T,d=1.2 cm0.120 \mathrm {~T} , d = 1.2 \mathrm {~cm} , and the measured voltage is V=2.88mVV = 2.88 \mathrm { mV } . Determine the speed of the fluid.
