Weber is the unit of

Correct answer: D. Magnetic flux

  • A. Electric potential
  • B. Electric intensity
  • C. Magnetic intensity
  • D. Magnetic flux

Explanation

The weber (Wb) is the unit of magnetic flux, which is a measure of the amount of magnetic field that passes through a given area. Magnetic flux is a measure of the strength of a magnetic field and is defined as the dot product of the magnetic field and the area vector

About Magnetic Flux

Magnetic flux measures the magnetic field passing through a surface, calculated for a uniform field as Φ = BA cos θ, where θ is the angle between the field and the surface normal. Questions involve area, field strength and orientation, the weber as its unit, and the distinction between flux and magnetic field.
