Question

A coil of wire with N turns and area A is placed into a magnetic field of magnitude B. The angle of the normal to the plane of the coil is at an angle phi with respect to the magnetic field. According to Faraday's law, which of the following changes will produce an emf in the coil?
Options
A magnetic field is decreased
B area is increased
C angle phi is decreased
D any of the above choices
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Phi=BAcos(phi); changing any of B, A, phi changes flux and induces an emf.

Hint

Phi=BAcos(phi); changing any of B, A, phi changes flux and induces an emf.
