A conducting loop is rotated in a uniform magnetic field. The induced emf depends on the rate of change of what physical

**Uniform field change** in coil produces emf proportional to area and turns, for circular coil radius 0.16 m area πr²=0.0804 m², B 0.12 T deformed to wire in 0.6 s, ΔΦ=0.12×0.0804=0.00965 Wb, e=0.00965/0.6=0.0161 V, illustrating area change also induces emf. Faraday’s law states that the induced emf is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux through the loop, which varies as the loop rotates. Using Φ = B A cosθ, e = -N dΦ/dt = -N A dB/dt = B l v = N B A ω sinωt, L = μ₀ N²A/l, M = e/(dI/dt) and U = ½ L I², result Magnetic

A conducting loop is rotated in a non-uniform magnetic field. The induced emf is more complex than in a uniform field be

**Field decreasing to zero** induces emf trying to maintain field, current direction such that its field adds to original. For 150 turns area 0.06 m² B 0.14 T to zero in 0.3 s, e=150×0.06×0.14/0.3=4.2 V, as earlier, showing linear dependence on N, A, ΔB/Δt. In a non-uniform field, the magnetic field strength varies across the loop, causing the flux change rate to depend on position, leading to a non-sinusoidal emf.
