Electromagnetic Induction


   
 
Numerical 02
02. A wire 40 cm long bent into a rectangular loop of 15 cm x 5 cm is placed perpendicular to the magnetic field whose flux density is 0.8Wbm2. Within 0.5 seconds, the loop is changed into a 10cm square and the flux density increases to 1.4 Wb m-2. Find the induced EMF.
 
Suggested solution:
 
Initial area,
 
A1 = 15 cm x 5 cm = 75 cm2 = 75 x 10-4 m2
 
Initial magnetic flux density,
 
B1 = 0.8 Wb m-2
 
Initial magnetic flux,
 
f1 = B1A1 = 0.8 x 75 x 10-4 Wb = 60 x 10-4 m2
 
Final area,
 
A2 = 10cm x 10 cm = 100cm2 = 100 x 10-4 Wb
 
Final magnetic flux density,
 
B2 = 1.4 Wb m-2
 
Final magnetic flux,
 
f2 = B2A2 = 1.4 x 100 x 10-4 Wb
 
= 140 x 10-4 Wb
 
Change in magnetic flux,
 
df = f2 - f1 = (140 x 10-4 - 60 x 10-4 ) Wb
