Determining the concept

By using the concept of the magnetic flux, Faraday’s law and Lenz’s law, find the magnitude and the direction of the induced emf in all the cases.

Faraday's law of electromagnetic inductionstates, Whenever a conductor is

placed in a varying magnetic field, an electromotive force is induced in it.

Lenz's law states that the current induced in a circuit due to a change in a magnetic field is directed to oppose the change in flux and to exert a mechanical force which opposes the motion.

Formulae are as follow:

  1. Faraday's lawε=dφdt
  2. Magnetic fluxφ=ϕBdA

Where,𝜀 is emf, dt is time, Φis magnetic flux, B is magnetic field, A is area.

03

(a) Determining the magnitude of emf induced ε

The magnetic flux passing through the coil is given by,

φ=ϕB.dA=ϕBdAcosθφ=BAcosθ

The emf induced in coil is given by,

ε=-dφdtε=-ddtBAcosθ.........................................................(1)ε=BAsinθ

Now, for the rectangular coil,

A=0.4×0.25A=0.1m2ε=0.1Bsinθ....................................................................(2)

For B=4×10-2T/m)yk^

As the unit vector k^, it is along z axis and it is perpendicular to the coil. But it is not changing with time. Hence, from equation 1,

ε=-ddtBAcosθε=0

Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.

04

(b) Determining the direction of the emf, (clockwise or anticlockwise or none.)

From a),

Hence, the direction of the emf is none.

05

(c) Determining the magnitude of emf induced

ForB=6×10-2T/s)tk^

It is perpendicular to the coil and changes with time. From equation 2,

ε=0.1Bsinθε=0.1×6×10-2sin90ε=0.1×6×10-2×1ε=0.1×6×10-2Vε=6×10-3Vε=6mV

Hence, emf induced in the loop will be 6 mV.

06

(d) Determining the direction of the emf, (clockwise or anticlockwise or none.)

Since, the magnetic field is directed into the page,

Hence, the direction of the induced emf is clockwise.

07

(e) Determining the magnitude of emf induced ε

ForB=8×10-2T/m.s)ytk^,

which is in the direction of y axis, that is, along the width of the coil.

φ=ϕB.dAφ=ϕ8×10-2yt×dl×w

w is along x axis.

φ=l×8×10-2t0Wydyφ=0.4×8×10-2t×w22

φ=0.4×8×10-2×t×0.2522φ=0.1t×10-2

The emf induced can be calculated as,

ε=dtε=ddt0.1t×10-2ε=1×10-3Vε=1mV

Hence, the emf induced in the coil is 1 mV.

08

(f) Determining the direction of the emf, (clockwise or anticlockwise or none.)

From e),

Hence, the direction of the induced emf will be clockwise.

09

(g) Determining the magnitude of emf induced ε

ForB=3×10-2T/m.s)xtj^ , the magnetic field is directed along the y axis i.e. parallel to the coil.

The flux through the coil i.e.φ=0

ε=0

Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.

10

(h) Determining the direction of the emf, (clockwise or anticlockwise or none.)

From g),

Hence, the direction of emf will be none.

11

 Step 11: (i) Determining the magnitude of emf induced ε

ForB=5×10-2T/m.s)yti^ , the magnetic field is directed along the x axis i.e. parallel to the coil.

The flux through the coil i.e.φ=0

ε=0

Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.

12

(j) Determining the direction of the emf, (clockwise or anticlockwise or none.)

From i),

Hence, the direction of emf will be none.

Therefore, by using the concept of the magnetic flux, Faraday’s law and Lenz’s law, find the magnitude and the direction of the induced emf in all the cases.

Figure (a) shows a circuit consisting of an ideal battery with emf ε=6.00mV, a resistance R, and a small wire loop of area 500cm2. For the time interval t = 10 s to t = 20 s, an external magnetic field is set up throughout the loop. The field is uniform, its direction is into the page in Figure (a), and the field magnitude is given by B = at, where B is in Tesla, a is a constant, and t is in seconds. Figure (b) gives the current i in the circuit before, during, and after the external field is set up. The vertical axis scale is set byis=2.0mA.
