    Two long straight conducting wires with linear mass density X are kept parallel to each other on a smooth horizontal surface. Distance between them is d and one end of each wire is connected to each other using a loose wire as shown in the figure. A capacitor is charged so as to have energy \[{{U}_{0}}\] stored in it. The capacitor is connected to the ends of two wires as shown. The resistance (R) of the entire arrangement is negligible and the capacitor discharges quickly. Assume that the distance between the wires do not change during the discharging process. Calculate the speed acquired by two wires as the capacitor discharges.

    A) \[\frac{2{{\mu }_{0}}{{U}_{0}}}{\pi \lambda Rd}\]       

    B)        \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}{{U}_{0}}}{2\pi \lambda Rd}\]

    C) \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}{{U}_{0}}}{\pi \lambda Rd}\]        

    D)        \[\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}{{U}_{0}}}{4\pi \lambda Rd}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] We will assume that the capacitor discharges quickly and there is no appreciable displacement of the wires in that interval. Let initial charge on the capacitor be \[{{Q}_{0}}.\] Current at time t is \[I=\frac{{{Q}_{0}}}{RC}{{e}^{-t/RC}}\] Force between two parallel wires per unit length is             \[F=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}{{I}^{2}}}{2\pi d}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}Q_{0}^{2}}{2\pi d{{R}^{2}}{{C}^{2}}}{{e}^{-2t/RC}}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\lambda dv=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}Q_{0}^{2}}{2\pi d{{R}^{2}}{{C}^{2}}}{{e}^{-2t/RC}}dt\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\int\limits_{0}^{v}{dv=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}Q_{0}^{2}}{2\pi \lambda d{{R}^{2}}{{C}^{2}}}}\int\limits_{0}^{\infty }{{{e}^{-2t/RC}}dt}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,v=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}Q_{0}^{2}}{4\pi \lambda RCd}=\frac{{{\mu }_{0}}{{U}_{0}}}{2\pi \lambda Rd}\,\,\,\,\,\,\left[ \because \,\,\,{{U}_{0}}=\frac{Q_{0}^{2}}{2C} \right]\]
