When a wire loop is rotated in two poles of magnetic field, the direction of e.m.f. change once in every:
Correct answer: D. 1/2 revolution
- A. 1 revolution
- B. 2 revolution
- C. 1/4 revolution
- D. 1/2 revolution
Explanation
For 1st half rotation induced EMF in a wire loop present in a magnetic field is given as a sinusoidal function. E=Eosin(ωt) The sinusoidal function has two sign changes in one cycle. Therefore, in every half of its revolution, the direction of the EMF induced will change.For 1st half rotation, emf in sinusoidal wave above the mean line and for 2nd half rotation below the mean line.

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.

When the magnet is in motion relative to a coil, an induced e.m.f. is produced. It does not depend upon:
In the equation the negative sign indicates that
In a closed ring (a) and in an open ring (b )magnets are falling along the axis of the ring. The current generated in a and b have directions:
To induce an emf in a coil the linking magnetic flux:
As shown in the figure, a magnet is moved with a fast speed towards a coil at rest. Due to this induced electromotive force, induced current and induced charge in the coil is E, I and Q respectively. If the speed of the magnet is doubled, the incorrect statement.
Two different loops are concentric and lie in the same plane. The current in the Outer loop is clockwise and increasing with time. The induced current in the inner loop then, is:
