Calculate the magnetic flux linked with a circular loop of area 0.5 m² placed perpendicular to a magnetic field of 2 T.
Answer
Given: A = 0.5 m², B = 2 T, θ = 0° (perpendicular means flux is maximum) Formula: Φ_B = BA cos θ Step 1: Identify the angle between B and normal to surface: θ = 0° Step 2: Apply the formula: Φ_B = 2…
State Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction and write its mathematical expression.
Answer
Faraday's Law states: Whenever magnetic flux linked with a closed circuit changes, an emf is induced in the circuit. The magnitude of induced emf is equal to the negative time rate of change of magnet…
Why does Lenz's law always oppose the change causing electromagnetic induction? Explain with the principle of energy conservation.
Answer
Lenz's law states that the direction of induced current is such that it always opposes the cause responsible for its production. Energy Conservation Principle: When a magnet approaches a coil, the in…
A conducting rod of length 0.5 m moves with velocity 4 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field of 0.8 T. Calculate the motional emf induced across the rod.
Answer
Given: l = 0.5 m, v = 4 m/s, B = 0.8 T, θ = 90° (perpendicular motion) Formula: ε = Blv sin θ (For perpendicular motion: sin 90° = 1) Step 1: Check that rod moves perpendicular to field: θ = 90° Ste…
What is self-inductance? How does it affect current changes in a circuit?
Answer
Self-inductance (L) is the property of a conductor or coil to generate emf due to change in current flowing through itself. Definition: Self-inductance is the flux linkage produced per unit current: …
Calculate the self-inductance of a solenoid with 500 turns, length 0.4 m, cross-sectional area 0.01 m², and relative permeability of core μᵣ = 800.
Answer
Given: N = 500 turns l = 0.4 m A = 0.01 m² μᵣ = 800 μ₀ = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m Formula: L = μ₀μᵣn²Al Where n = N/l = number of turns per unit length Step 1: Calculate turn density: n = N/l = 500/0.4 = 1250 …
Define mutual inductance and explain how it enables transformer operation.
Answer
Mutual Inductance (M) is the ability of one coil to induce emf in a neighboring coil through changing magnetic flux. Definition: Mutual inductance is the flux linkage in secondary coil per unit chang…
Two coils have a mutual inductance of 0.5 H. If the current in primary coil changes from 2 A to 8 A in 0.1 s, find the emf induced in secondary coil.
Answer
Given: M = 0.5 H i₁(initial) = 2 A i₁(final) = 8 A Δt = 0.1 s Formula: ε₂ = -M(di₁/dt) Step 1: Calculate rate of change of current: di₁/dt = (i₁(final) - i₁(initial)) / Δt di₁/dt = (8 - 2) / 0.1 = 6…
