Question

What is the minimum frequency with which a 200-turn, flat coil of cross sectional area 300 cm2 can be rotated in a uniform 30-mT magnetic field if the maximum value of the induced emf is to equal 8.0 V

Answer 1

Answer:

The minimum frequency of the coil is 7.1 Hz

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns, N = 200 turns

cross sectional area, A = 300 cm² = 300 x 10⁻⁴ m²

magnitude of magnetic field strength, B = 30 x 10⁻³ T

maximum value of the induced emf, E = 8 V

Maximum induced emf is given as;

E = NBAω

where

ω is angular velocity (ω = 2πf)

E = NBA2πf

where;

f is the minimum frequency, measured in hertz (Hz)

f = E / (NBA2π)

f = 8 / (200 x 30 x 10⁻³  x 300 x 10⁻⁴ x 2 x 3.142)

f = 7.073 Hz

f = 7.1 Hz

Therefore, the minimum frequency of the coil is 7.1 Hz
