The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Length of conductor (I) = 0.4 m; Speed = 7 m/s and magnetic field (B) = 0.9 Wb/$m^2$. Induced e.m.f. $(\in)=Blv \, \, =0.9\times0.4\times7=2.52 V$.

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
