A Correct answer
Explanation

As per the Faraday's experiments, a current in a conductor produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field gets linked with another conductor and result in an induced emf.

B Correct answer
Explanation

$\displaystyle \left | e \right |=L\frac{dI}{dt}$
Here, $\displaystyle e=20mV=20\times 10^{-3}V$
Coefficient of mutual inductance,
$ 20\times 10^{-3}=L\times 2$
$\displaystyle \therefore L=10\times 10^{-3}=10mH$

A short solenoid of length $4cm$, radius $2cm$ and $100$ turns is placed inside and on the axis of a long solenoid of length $80cm$ and $1500$ turns. A current of $3A$ flows through the short solenoid. The mutual inductance of two solenoids is

  1. $0.012H$
  2. $5.3\times {10}^{-5}H$
  3. $5.91\times {10}^{-3}H$
  4. $8.3\times {10}^{-5}H$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

As $M = \cfrac{\mu _0N _1N _2A}{l}$


where,
$A =$ common cross-sectional area
$l =$ length of small coil
$N _1 =$ No. of turns of small coil
$N _1 =$ No. of turns of long coil

$M = \cfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} \times 100 \times 1500 \times \pi \times (\cfrac{2}{100})^2}{(\cfrac{4}{100})} = 59157.6 \times 10^{-7} = 5.91 \times 10^{-3} H$

  2. $ 8 \pi $
  3. $ 5 \pi $
  4. $ 2 \pi $
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
Mutual inductance between two coils
M = 0.005 H 
Peak current $ l _0 = 10 A $
Angular frequency $ \omega = 100 \pi $ rad/s
Current $ l = l _0 \sin \omega t $
$ \dfrac {d}{dt} = \dfrac {d}{dt} ( l \sin \omega t ) $
$ = l _0 \cos \omega t . \omega $
$ = 10 \times 1 \times 100 \pi $
$ = 1000 \pi $
Hence, induced emf is given by 
$ E = M \times \dfrac {dl}{dt} $
$ = 0.005 \times 1000 \times \pi = 5 \pi V $

A coil of area 500 $cm^2$ having 1000 turns is placed such that the plane of the coil is perpendicular to a magnetic field of magnitude $4 \times 10^{-5}$ $weber/m^2$. If it is rotated by 180 about an axis passing through one of its diameter in 0.1 sec, find the average induced emf.

  1. zero.

  2. 30 mV

  3. 40 mV

  4. 50 mV
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
0iven that :-  $N=1000, B=4\times 10^{-5}weber/m^2, A=500cm^2=0.05m^2$

Initial flux linked with the coil, $\phi _1=1000\times 4\times 10^{-5}\times 0.05$

$\implies \phi _1=2\times 10^{-3}weber$

After rotation of $180^{o}$, B remains same but normal vector gets reversed, hence $\phi _2=-\phi _1$

Average EMF=$E=\dfrac{-\Delta \phi}{t}$

$\implies E=-\dfrac{\phi _2-\phi _1}{t}$

$\implies E=\dfrac{\phi _1-\phi _2}{t}$

$\implies E=\dfrac{2\phi _1}{t}$

$\implies E=\dfrac{4\times 10^{-3}}{0.1}V$

$\implies E=40mV$
