Question 15 of 153
The induced emf can be produced in a coil by
A. moving the coil with uniform speed inside uniform magnetic field
B. moving the coil with non uniform speed inside uniform magnetic field
C. rotating the coil inside the uniform magnetic field
D. changing the area of the coil inside the uniform magnetic field
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Show answer and solution
Answer: (C) and only
Induced emf is given by Faraday's law
where is the magnetic flux.
The rate of change of flux through a circuit is defined as emf. The formula for flux is . In the statements A&B given in the question, the magnetic flux in the coil in uniform magnetic field does not change. So, no emf is induced.
But in statement , the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field continuously changes hence, an emf is generated. In statement , the area is changing in unit time so magnetic flux will change and an emf is generated.
