A magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of a single-turn circular coil. The magnitude of the field is changing, so that an emf of 0.81 V and a current of 3.8 A are induced in the coil. The wire is then re-formed into a single-turn square coil, which is used in the same magnetic field (again perpendicular to the plane of the coil and with a magnitude changing at the same rate). What (a) emf and (b) current are induced in the square coil?

Expert Solution

Area of the circular coil with radius R, Ac = R2
When the circular coil is re-formed to a square,
Circumference of the circular coil = Perimeter of the square.
2R = 4a
Where a is the side of the square.
a = R/2
Area of the square, As = a2
= 2R2/4
-------------------------------------
Magnetic field induced in the circular coil, Ec = dB/dt * Ac
Where dB/dt is the change in the magnetic field.
0.81 = dB/dt * R2 ...(1)

Magnetic field induced in the square loop, Es = dB/dt * As
Es = dB/dt * ​​​​​​​2R2/4 ...(2)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
a)
(2) /(1) gives
Es / 0.81 = /4
Es = 0.81 * /4
= 0.64 V
---------------------------------------------------
b)
Resistance of the wire remain the same,
R = Ec/I
= 0.81 / 3.8
= 0.21 Ohm

Current in the square loop,
Is = Vs/R
= 0.64 / 0.21
= 3.0 A

You hold a wire coil so that the plane of the coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field vector B. Vector Bis kept constant but the coil is rotated so that the magnetic field, vector B , is now in the plane of the coil. How will the magnetic flux through the coil change as the rotation occurs? Check all that apply. The flux is unchanged because the magnitude of vector B is constant. The flux increases because the angle...
