PHY 102 Electromagnetic Induction Objective Question

Question

A coil of 50 turns with area 0.02 m² is in a uniform B-field of 0.3 T perpendicular to the coil. If the field is reduced to zero in 0.1 seconds, what is the average induced emf?
Options
A 3 V
Correct Answer
B 0.3 V
C 30 V
D 300 V
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Initial Φ = BA = (0.3)(0.02) = 0.006 Wb. ΔΦ = 0 - 0.006 = -0.006 Wb. |ε| = N|ΔΦ/Δt| = 50 × (0.006/0.1) = 50 × 0.06 = 3 V.

Hint

ε = N × (ΔΦ/Δt).
