A circular loop of wire with a radius of 12.0 cm and oriented in the horizontal xy-plane is located in a region of uniform magne

tic field. A field of 1.5 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 2.0 ms, find the average emf that will be induced in the wire loop during the extraction process. (b) If the coil is viewed looking down on it from above, is the induced current in the loop clockwise or counterclockwise

(a) 34 V

The average emf induced in the loop is given by Faraday-Newmann-Lenz law:

\epsilon = -\frac{\Delta \Phi_B}{\Delta t} (1)

where

\Delta \Phi_B is the variation of magnetic flux through the coil

\Delta t = 2.0 ms = 0.002 s is the time interval

We need to find the magnetic flux before and after. The magnetic flux is given by:

\Phi_B = BA

where

B is the magnetic field intensity

A is the area of the coil

The radius of the coil is r = 12.0 cm = 0.12 m, so its area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.12 m)^2 = 0.045 m^2

At the beginning, the magnetic field is

B_i = 1.5 T

so the flux is

\Phi_i = B_i A = (1.5 T)(0.045 m^2)=0.068 Wb

while after the removal of the coil, the magnetic field is zero, so the flux is also zero:

\Phi_f = 0

so the variation of magnetic flux is

\Delta \Phi = 0-0.068 Wb=-0.068 Wb

And substituting into (1) we find the average emf in the coil

\epsilon=-\frac{-0.068 Wb}{0.002 s}=34 V

(b) Counterclockwise

In order to understand the direction of the induced current, we have to keep in mind the negative sign in Lenz's law (1), which tells that the direction of the induced current must be such that the magnetic field produced by this current opposes the variation of magnetic flux in the coil.

In this situation, the magnetic flux through the coil is decreasing, since the coil is removed from the field. So, the induced current must be such that it produces a magnetic field whose direction is the same as the direction of the external magnetic field, which is upward along the positive z-direction.

Looking down from above and using the right-hand rule on the loop (thumb: direction of the current, other fingers wrapped: direction of magnetic field), we see that in order to produce at the center of the coil a magnetic field which is along positive z-direction, the induced current must be counterclockwise.

Distinguish between directly proportional and inversely proportional with an example of each
RideAnS [48]

Consider two variables said to be "inversely proportional" to each other. If all other variables are held constant, the magnitude or absolute value of one inversely proportional variable decreases if the other variable increases, while their product (the constant of proportionality k) is always the same.

water in a cup and a kettle can have the same temperature even though the quantities are different . give reasons​
jekas [21]

Answer:

The reason is because both are exposed to a virtually infinite heat sink, due to the virtually infinite mass  and of the surrounding environment, compared to the sizes of either the cup or the kettle such that the equilibrium temperature, T_{(equilibrium)} reached is the same for both the cup and the kettle as given by the relation;

\infty M_{(environ)} \times  c_{(environ)} \times (T_2 - T_1) = m_{1} \times  c_{(water)} \times (T_3 - T_2) + m_{2} \times  c_{(water)} \times (T_4 - T_2)

Due to the large heat sink, T₂ - T₁ ≈ 0 such that the temperature of the kettle and that of the cup will both cool to the temperature of the environment
