Question

A square coil (length of side = 24 cm) of wire consisting of two turns is placed in a uniform magnetic field that makes an angle of 60° with the plane of the coil. If the magnitude of this field increases by 6.0 mT every 10 ms, what is the magnitude of the emf induced in the coil?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Length of side of a square, l = 24 cm = 0.24 m

The uniform magnetic field makes an angle of 60° with the plane of the coil.

The magnetic field increases by 6.0 mT every 10 ms. We need to find the magnitude of the emf induced in the coil. The induced emf is given by :

`\epsilon=N(d\phi)/(dt)`

`(d\phi)/(dt)` is the rate of change if magnetic flux.

`\phi=BA\ cos\theta`

`\theta` is the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to area vector.

`\theta=90-60=30`

`\epsilon=NA(dB)/(dt)* cos30`

`\epsilon=2* (0.24\ m)^2* (6\ mT)/(10\ mT)* cos(30)`

`\epsilon=0.0598\ T`

`\epsilon=59.8\ mT`

or

EMF = 60 mT

So, the magnitude of emf induced in the coil is 60 mT. Hence, this is the required solution.
