Question

A current of 2A is passed through a metal strip of width (0.01 m) and thickness (0.005 m). A magnetic field of 0.5 T is applied perpendicular to the current. The Hall voltage is measured to be $V_H = 5 \times 10^{-4}$. Calculate the Hall electric field $E_H$ across the strip and also determine the carrier concentration in the material.

Step 1

The Hall electric field is given by the formula: $E_H = \frac{V_H}{t}$, where $V_H$ is the Hall voltage and $t$ is the thickness of the strip. Given $V_H = 5 \times 10^{-4}$ V and $t = 0.005$ m. $E_H = \frac{5 \times 10^{-4}}{0.005} = 0.1$ V/m Show more…
