Try it on paper first. A hint, the key idea and the worked solution are here when you need them.
A coil of turns and radius cm is placed with its axis along the field of an electromagnet. The field rises from zero to T in s. The circuit of the coil has a resistance of . Find the average emf, the average current and the charge that flows.
The flux through a flat loop is , with the angle between the field and the normal to the loop. A coil of turns has the flux linkage . Faraday's law gives . The current is , and the charge that flows is .
Have you tried it?
Work it out on paper first. It is fine to get stuck or make a mistake: that is how we learn. When you are ready, go through the solution one step at a time, and check each step against your own.
Plan. Find the change of flux through one turn, then the emf, the current and the charge.
Step 1. The change of flux. . So .
Step 2. The emf. .
Step 3. The current. , that is mA.
Step 4. The charge. , that is mC.
Answer: V, mA and mC.
Check. mC. It fits.
