Practice question
Question
A coil is placed in a time-varying magnetic field. The direction of the induced current is determined
by which principle?
Explanation
**Faraday's first law** emf induced when flux linking coil changes, second law magnitude proportional to rate of change, e = -dΦ/dt, for N turns e = -N dΦ/dt, flux Φ = B A cosθ, change can be due to B change, A change, or θ change, all produce emf. Lenz’s law dictates that the induced current opposes the change in magnetic flux, determining its direction based on the field’s variation. 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
