Practice question
Question
A circular loop of radius 12 cm is deformed into a straight wire in a 0.2 T field in 0.5 s. What is the
induced emf?
Explanation
**AC generator** emf e = N B A ω sin ωt, maximum when coil plane parallel to field, zero when perpendicular, time duration of emf when loop moves out of field t = L/v, L side along motion, v speed, e = B l v while cutting. For loop 0.28×0.14 m B=0.3 T v=1.4 m/s along longer side 0.28 m, cutting side 0.14 m, e=0.3×0.14×1.4=0.0588 V, duration t=0.28/1.4=0.2 s, emf exists only during exit. Initial flux: Φ = B A = 0.2 × π × (0.12)² = 0.00904 Wb . Final flux = 0. ε = (Δ Φ/Δ t) = (0.00904/0.5) = 0.01808 V ≈
