  2. $60\pi\ V$

  3. $15\pi\ V$

  4. $300\pi\ V$

  5. $3\pi\ V$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Let the current flows through coil 1 is, ${{I} _{1}}={{I} _{0}}\sin \omega t$ where, ${{I} _{0}}$is peak value of current.

Magnetic flux linked with coil 2 is ${{\phi } _{2}}=M   {{I} _{1}}=M{{I} _{0}}\sin \omega t$

Emf in coil 2 is

${{\varepsilon } _{2}}=\dfrac{d{{\phi } _{2}}}{dt}=\dfrac{d(M{{I} _{0}}\sin \omega t)}{dt}=M \omega {{I} _{0}}\cos \omega t$

So, peak value of voltage induced in coil 2 is $=M{{I} _{o}}\omega ....(1)$

Given that,

$ \nu =50\,Hz $

$ {{I} _{0}}=2\,A $

$ L=150\,mH $

$ \omega =2\pi \nu =2\pi \times 50 $

Put all values in equation (1)

$ current=150\times {{10}^{-3}}\times 2\times 100\pi  $

$ I=30\pi \,V $

The length of solenoid is 0.3 m and the number of turns is 2000. The area of cross-section of the solenoid is $1.2\times 10^{-3} m^2$. Another coil of turns 200 is wrapped over the solenoid. a current of 2 A is passed through the solenoid and its direction is changed in 0.25 sec. Then the induced emf in the coil:

  1. $4.8\times10^{-2} V$

  2. $4.8\times10^{-3} V$

  3. $3.2\times10^{-3} V$

  4. $3.2\times10^{-2} V$

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
$N _1=2000$
$N _2=300$
$A=1.2\times 10^{-3}m^2$
$l=0.3\ m$
$t=0.25\ s$
$I=0.2\ A$
we know,

Mutual inductance $(M)=\dfrac{\mu _0N _1N _2A}{l}$

$\Rightarrow M=\dfrac{\mu _0N _1N _2A}{l}$

also,
induced emf $(\varepsilon)=M.\dfrac{dI}{dt}$

and $\dfrac{dI}{dt}=\dfrac{2-(-2)}{0.25}=\dfrac{4}{0.25}=16$

so $\varepsilon =M\dfrac{dI}{dt}=\dfrac{\mu _0N _1N _2A}{l}.\dfrac{dI}{dt}$

$\varepsilon=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2000\times 300\times 1.2\times 10^{-3}\times 16}{0.3}$

$\boxed{\varepsilon=0.048\ V=4.8\times 10^{-2}\ V}$ hence $(A)$ option is correct

  3. $\dfrac { \mu _ { 0 } I } { \pi ^ { 2 } R }$

  4. $\dfrac { \mu _ { 0 } I } { 2 \pi ^ { 2 } R }$

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Let semicircular ring of radius $R$ as shown in figure 

An elementary length $dl$ cut for finding magnetic field,
So, 
$dl = Rd\theta $
So, elementary current along $dl$ is $di = \frac{i}{{\pi R}} \times Rd\theta  = \frac{{id\theta }}{\pi }$.
Now, you can see that elementary part of length is perpendicular upon $dB$.
so,
$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}di}}{{2\pi R}}$

$ = \frac{{{\mu _0}di}}{{2{\pi ^2}R}}$


Now, magnetic filed along axis $B = \int\limits _0^\pi  {db.\sin \theta d\theta }  = 2dB$
Now, put $dB$ in here,
So, $B = \frac{{{\mu _o}i}}{{{\pi ^2}R}}$
Hence, 
Option $C$ is the correct answer.
