Answer:
emf = 0.02525 V
induced current with a counterclockwise direction
Explanation:
The emf is given by the following formula:
(1)
ФB: magnetic flux = BA
B: magnitude of the magnetic field = 1.00T
A2: final area of the loop; A1: initial area
t2: final time, t1: initial time
You first calculate the final A2, by taking into account that the circumference of loop decreases at 11.0cm/s.
In t = 4 s the final circumference will be:
To find the areas A1 and A2 you calculate the radius:
r1 = 0.261 m
r2 = 0.190 m
Then, the areas A1 and A2 are:
Finally, the emf induced, by using the equation (1), is:
The induced current has counterclockwise direction, because the induced magneitc field generated by the induced current must be opposite to the constant magnetic field B.
