Summary

  • The magnetic flux through an enclosed area is defined as the amount of field lines cutting through a surface area A defined by the unit area vector.
  • The units for magnetic flux are webers, where 1 Wb = 1 T · m 2 .
  • The induced emf in a closed loop due to a change in magnetic flux through the loop is known as Faraday’s law. If there is no change in magnetic flux, no induced emf is created.

Conceptual questions

A stationary coil is in a magnetic field that is changing with time. Does the emf induced in the coil depend on the actual values of the magnetic field?

A copper ring and a wooden ring of the same dimensions are placed in magnetic fields so that there is the same change in magnetic flux through them. Compare the induced electric fields and currents in the rings.

Both have the same induced electric fields; however, the copper ring has a much higher induced emf because it conducts electricity better than the wooden ring.

The magnetic field through a circular loop of radius 10.0 cm varies with time as shown below. The field is perpendicular to the loop. Plot the magnitude of the induced emf in the loop as a function of time.

Figure shows the magnetic field in milliTesla plotted as a function of time in ms. Magnetic field is zero when the time is equal to zero. It increases linearly with time reaching 3 milliTesla and 2 ms. It remains the same till 5 ms and then decreases linearly to 0 and 6 ms.

B = 1.5 t , 0 t < 2.0 ms , B = 3.0 mT , 2.0 ms t 5.0 ms , B = −3.0 t + 18 mT , 5.0 ms < t 6.0 ms , ε = d Φ m d t = d ( B A ) d t = A d B d t , ε = π ( 0.100 m ) 2 ( 1.5 T/s ) = −47 mV ( 0 t < 2.0 ms ) , ε = π ( 0.100 m ) 2 ( 0 ) = 0 ( 2.0 ms t 5.0 ms ) , ε = π ( 0.100 m ) 2 ( −3.0 T/s ) = 94 mV ( 5.0 ms < t < 6.0 ms ) .
Figure shows the Emf in mV plotted as a function of time in ms. Emf is equal to -47 mV when the time is equal to zero. It increases in a step fashion to 0 when the time reaches 2 ms. Emf remains the same till 5 ms and then increases in a step fashion to 94 mV. It stays constant till time reaches 6 ms.

why is communication effective
Dakolo Reply
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.
effective communication can lead to improved outcomes in various settings, including personal relationships, business environments, and educational settings. By communicating effectively, individuals can negotiate effectively, solve problems collaboratively, and work towards common goals.

explain how nature and nurture affect the development and later the productivity of an individual.
Amesalu Reply
nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.
