Step by step solution

01

Step: 1  Find the direction of induced current: (part a) 

According to Lenz's law, the induced emf forces current through a wire loop in the reverse direction of the change in magnetic flux that creates the emf. To determine the direction of the induced current and the induced magnetic field, use the right-hand rule, where your enclosing four fingers represent the induced magnetic field and your thumb represent the current.

There is an induced magnetic field into the page because the applied magnetic field has to be in the page and its strength develops. This induced magnetic field causes current to flow in a clockwise direction.

Step: 2  Finding the induced emf: (part b)

The magnetic flux Φis the amount of magnetic flux that flows through a loop of area A. The magnetic flux is provided by when the magnetization makes an angle with the plane.

Φm=BA

The loop runs at localid="1648915127867" vper minute over a distance of localid="1648915131114" xin time localid="1648915134505" tin the direction of localid="1648915137366" θ=45, localid="1648915140154" x=(vcosθ)tis the range. When the entire loop is inserted in the magnetic field, this distance represents the loop's side. As a result, the portal's area will be

A=x2=(vcosθ)2t2=v2t2cosθ

The induced emf, as defined by Faraday's law, is the change in magnetic flux inside the loop, and it is provided by equation

localid="1648915144573" ε=dΦmdt=BdAdt=Bddtv2t2cos2θ=2Bv2cos2θt.

03

Step: 3 Finding the induced current: (part b)

Put the values of v,Band θinto equation by

ε=2Bv2cos2θtε=2(0.10T)(10m/s)2cos245tε=10t.

The loop resistivity Rby

R=(0.010Ω/m)(4x)R=(0.010Ω/m)(4vcosθt)R=(0.010Ω/m)410m/scos45tR=0.28t.

The induced current through inner loop by ohm's law is

Iinduced=εR=10tR=10t0.28t=35A.

04

Step: 4 Evaluating values: (part c)

The induced emfat time t=0.10sand the current will be same.

ε=10t=10(0.10s)=1VIinduced=35A.

I Electricity is distributed from electrical substations to neighborhoods at 15,000 V. This is a 60Hzoscillating (AC) voltage. Neighborhood transformers, seen on utility poles, step this voltage down to the 120Vthat is delivered to your house.

a. How many turns does the primary coil on the transformer have if the secondary coil has 100 turns?

b. No energy is lost in an ideal transformer, so the output power Poutfrom the secondary coil equals the input power Pin to the primary coil. Suppose a neighborhood transformer delivers 250A at120V. What is the current in the 15,000V line from the substation?
