By using the concept of the magnetic flux, Faraday’s law and Lenz’s law, find the magnitude and the direction of the induced emf in all the cases.
Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction states, Whenever a conductor is
placed in a varying magnetic field, an electromotive force is induced in it.
Lenz's law states that the current induced in a circuit due to a change in a magnetic field is directed to oppose the change in flux and to exert a mechanical force which opposes the motion.
Formulae are as follow:
Where, 𝜀 is emf, dt is time, is magnetic flux, B is magnetic field, A is area.
The magnetic flux passing through the coil is given by,
The emf induced in coil is given by,
Now, for the rectangular coil,
For
As the unit vector , it is along z axis and it is perpendicular to the coil. But it is not changing with time. Hence, from equation 1,
Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.
From a),
Hence, the direction of the emf is none.
For
It is perpendicular to the coil and changes with time. From equation 2,
Hence, emf induced in the loop will be 6 mV.
Since, the magnetic field is directed into the page,
Hence, the direction of the induced emf is clockwise.
For ,
which is in the direction of y axis, that is, along the width of the coil.
w is along x axis.
The emf induced can be calculated as,
Hence, the emf induced in the coil is 1 mV.
From e),
Hence, the direction of the induced emf will be clockwise.
For , the magnetic field is directed along the y axis i.e. parallel to the coil.
The flux through the coil i.e.
Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.
From g),
Hence, the direction of emf will be none.
For , the magnetic field is directed along the x axis i.e. parallel to the coil.
The flux through the coil i.e.
Hence, the emf induced in the coil is zero.
From i),
Hence, the direction of emf will be none.
Therefore, by using the concept of the magnetic flux, Faraday’s law and Lenz’s law, find the magnitude and the direction of the induced emf in all the cases.
