A circular coil of N-turns and of radius R is kept normal to a magnetic field given by B = B_(0) cos omegat. Deduce an expression for emf induced in this coil. State the rule which helps to detect the direction of induced current.

Answer»

Solution :As given circular coil of N-turns and of radius R is placed in a UNIFORM magnetic field `B = B_(0) cos Omegat` acting perpendicular to the plane of the coil, hence, total magnetic flux linked with the coil will be
`phi_(B) = N A B = N (PIR^(2))B_(0), cos omegat`
Since the magnetic flux is continuously varying with time, hence induced emf set up in the coil will be
`phi_(B) = (dphi_(B))/DT = - d/dt[Npi R^(2) B_(0) cos omegat]`
`=- NpiR^(2)B_(0)d/dt[cos omegat] = piR^(2)N B_(0) OMEGA sin omegat`
Obviously the induced emf is sinusoidal in nature (of the form `omega_(0) = piR^(2)NB_(0)omega`.
Direction of induced current can be DETERMINED by applying Fleming.s right hand rule. For its statement, see Point Number 31 under the heading "Chapter At A Glance".
