Question
A conducting circular loop is placed in uniform magnetic field 0.04 T with its plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The radius of the loop starts shrinking at 2 mms-1. The induced emf in the loop when the radius is 2 cm is
-
3.2 π μ V
-
4.8 π μ V
-
0.8 π μ V
-
1.6 π μ V
Solution
A.
3.2 π μ V
According to faraday's second law of electromagnetic induction the induced emf is given by rate of change of magnetic flux linked with the circuit.
Here, B = 0.04 T and -dr /dt = 2 mms-1
Induced emf, e = dΦ / dt = -BdA/dt = -Bd(πr2)/dt
=- Bπ 2r dr / dt
now, if r = 2 cm
e = -0.04 x π x 2 x 2 x 10-2 x2 x 10-3
3.2 π μ V
