  5. the ability of a magnetic field to induce a voltage in a current carrying conductor.

Show answer
Correct Option: A
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.

For a current carrying inductor, emf associated in $20mV$. Now, current through it changes from $6A$ to $2A$ in $2s$. The coefficient of mutual inductance is

  2. $10mH$

  3. $1mH$

  4. $2mH$

Show answer
Correct Option: B
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$
$\displaystyle \therefore L=10\times 10^{-3}=10mH$

  2. $5.3\times {10}^{-5}H$

  3. $5.91\times {10}^{-3}H$

  4. $8.3\times {10}^{-5}H$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

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

mutual inductance electromagnetic induction electromagnetic induction and alternating currents physics

  1. $ 12 \pi $

  2. $ 8 \pi $

  3. $ 5 \pi $

  4. $ 2 \pi $

Show answer
Correct Option: C
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.

mutual inductance electromagnetic induction electromagnetic induction and alternating currents physics

  1. zero.

  2. 30 mV

  3. 40 mV

  4. 50 mV

Show answer
Correct Option: C
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=$E=\dfrac{-\Delta \phi}{t}$

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

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

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

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

$\implies E=40mV$

Answer-(C)
