Question:

A circular coil of radius $0.1\, m$ has $80$ turns of wire. If the magnetic field through the coil increases from $0\, to\, 2$ tesla in $0.4 \,s$ and the coil is connected to a $11 \,\Omega$ resistor, what is the current flow through the resistor during the 0.4 s?

The Correct Option is A

Solution and Explanation

$\left|\varepsilon \right|=N \frac{d\phi}{dt} =NA \frac{dB}{dt} $
$= 80 \times\frac{22}{7} \times\left(0.1\right)^{2} \left(\frac{2.0}{0.4}\right)$
$ I =\frac{\left|\varepsilon \right|}{R} =80 \times\frac{22}{7} \times\frac{\left(0.1\right)^{2 }\times5}{11}=\frac{8}{7}A$

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
