Question

A circular loop of wire with a radius of 15.0 cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magnetic field. A field of 1.2 T is directed along the positive z-direction, which is upward. (a)If the loop is removed from the field region in a time interval of 2.3 ms, find the average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius r = 15cm = 0.15m

Area of the circular loop can be determined using the formula for area of a circle

A = π r²

A = π × 0.15²

A = 0.0708 m²

Magnetic field B = 1.2T in positive z direction

B = 1.2 •k T.

If loop is remove from the field in the time interval

∆t = 2.3ms = 2.3×10^-3s

We want to find the average EMF and it is given as

ε = —∆Φ/∆t

The final flux is zero

Φf = 0

Where magnetic flux is given as

Φi = BA Cosθ

Where θ=0 since the area and the magnetic field point in the same direction.

Φi = BA Cos0

Φi = BA

Φi = 1.2 × 0.0708

Φi = 0.0848 Vs

Then, ε = —∆Φ/∆t

ε = —(Φf — Φi) / ∆t

ε = —(0-0.0848) / (2.3×10^-3)

ε = 0.0848 / (2.3×10^-3)

ε = 36.88 V

The EMF is 36.88 Volts
