Important Questions on Electromagnetic Induction








A thin strip long is on a shaped wire of negligible resistance and it is connected to a spring of spring constant (see figure). The assembly is kept in a uniform magnetic field of If the strip is pulled from its equilibrium position and released, the number of oscillations it performs before its amplitude decreases by a factor of is . If the mass of the strip is grams, its resistance and air drag negligible, will be close to:




The figure shows a circular area of tthe radius where a uniform magnetic field is going into the plane of the paper and increasing in magnitude at a constant rate. In that case, which of the following graphs, drawn schematically, correctly shows the variation of the induced electric field ?

The figure shows the cross section of a cylindrical region of radius in which the magnetic field points into the page. The magnitude of the field is at time and it decreases to zero in seconds.
The induced electric field at a distance from the centre inside the cylindrical region is given by

A rod of length slides with a speed of on a rectangular conducting frame as shown in figure. There exists a uniform magnetic field of perpendicular to the plane of the figure. If the resistance of the rod is . The current through the rod is

A light disc made of aluminium (a nonmagnetic material) is kept horizontally and is free to rotate about its axis as shown in the figure. A strong magnet is held vertically at a point above the disc away from its axis. On revolving the magnet about the axis of the disc, the disc will (figure is schematic and not drawn to scale)




A wire loop enclosing a semi-circle of radius is located on the boundary of a uniform magnetic field of induction At time , the loop is set into rotation with velocity ? about its axis , coinciding with a line of vector on the boundary as shown in the figure. The emf induced in the loop is



The circular wire in figure below encircles solenoid in which the magnetic flux is increasing at a constant rate out of the plane of the page.
The clockwise emf around the circular loop is By definition a voltammeter measures the voltage difference between the two points given
by We assume that and are infinitesimally close to each other. The values of along the path and along the path respectively are
