The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

Current in the circuit is given by : $l^2$ [700+300] = $\frac{1}{2} \times 5 \times 10^{-6} \times (200)^2$ This gives ; $l^2 = 0.1 \times 10^{-3}$ Hence $H_1 = l^2\, R_1$ = 0.07 J And $H_2 = I^2R_2$ = 0.03 J

Electromagnetic Induction

Electromagnetic Induction is a current produced by the voltage production due to a changing magnetic field. This happens in one of the two conditions:-

  1. When we place the conductor in a changing magnetic field.
  2. When the conductor constantly moves in a stationary field.

Formula:

The electromagnetic induction is mathematically represented as:-

e=N × d∅.dt

Where

  • e = induced voltage
  • N = number of turns in the coil
  • Φ = Magnetic flux (This is the amount of magnetic field present on the surface)
  • t = time

Applications of Electromagnetic Induction

  1. Electromagnetic induction in AC generator
  2. Electrical Transformers
  3. Magnetic Flow Meter
