Question

A square of side $L$ meters lies in the $x-y$ plane in a region, where the magnetic field is given by $\vec{B}= B_0 (2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} +4\hat{k})T$ where $B_0$ is constant. The magnitude of flux passing through the square is

• A. $2B_{0} L^{2}Wb$
• B. $3B_{0} L^{2}Wb$
• C. $4B_{0} L^{2}Wb$
• D. $\sqrt{29}B_{0}L^{2}Wb$

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Here, $\vec{B} = B_{0} \left(2\hat{i} +3\hat{j} +4\hat{k}\right) T $ Area of the square $= L^2 \hat{k} m^2$ $\therefore$ Flux passing through the square, $\phi = \vec{B} \cdot \vec{ A} =B_0 (2\hat i + 3\hat j + 4\hat k) \cdot L^2 \hat k $ $= 4\,B_0 L^2 Wb$
