A coil is placed in a time varying magnetic field. If the number of turns in the coil were to be halved and the radius of wire doubled, the electrical power dissipated due to the current induced in the coil would be:
(Assume the coil to be short circuited.)
(Assume the coil to be short circuited.)
- Halved
- Quadrupled
- The same
- Doubled
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is (D) : Doubled
As number of turns are halved so length of wire is halved, and radius is doubled, then area will be 4 times the previous one if previous resistance is R then new resistance is R/8 and if previous emf is E then new emf will be E/2 so
\(P_i=\frac{E_2}{R}\)
\(P_f=\frac{(\frac{E}{2})^2}{\frac{R}{8}}\)
\(=\frac{2E^2}{R}=2P_i\)
Because of the changes in answer key, students can challenge this question.

Concepts Used:
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:-
- When we place the conductor in a changing magnetic field.
- 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
