Magnetic flux is maximum when the angle between the magnetic field and vector area is:

Correct answer: A. 0 degree

  • A. 0 degree
  • B. 90 degrees
  • C. 180 degrees
  • D. 45 degrees

Explanation

Magnetic flux is the product of the magnetic induction and vector area elementFlux= B.ΔAFlux=BΔAcosθThe maximum value(=1) of cosθ occurs at cos(0) hence the answer is 0 degrees.

About Electromagnetism

Magnetic flux density and magnetic flux describe the strength of a magnetic field and the field passing through a surface. A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its velocity and may follow circular or helical motion, depending on the angle between velocity and field.
