The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Induced emf, $ e=L\frac{di}{dt} $ $ \Rightarrow $ $ L=\frac{e}{di/dt} $ Unit of inductance $ L=\frac{volt}{amp/s} $ $ =\frac{volt-\sec }{amp} $

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
