Q152 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2022 (04 Jul Shift 2) · Physics

A circular coil has 100 turns, radius 3 cm and resistance 4Ω. This coil is co-axial with a solenoid of 200 turns/cm and diameter 4 cm. If the solenoid current is decreased from 2 A to zero in 0.04 s, then the current induced in the coil is

  • Correct answer
    A
    9π2 mA
  • B
    8π mA
  • C
    30.3 mA
  • D
    45.5 mA

Solution

Magnetic field due to a solenoid is given by, B=μ0ni.

Therefore, flux through the coil will be, ϕ=BA=μ0niNπr2.

According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction ε=∆ϕ∆t. Therefore,

i=∆ϕR∆t=μ0nNπr2R×∆i∆t=4π×10-7×200×100×π×0.0324×20.04⇒i=9π2 mA

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
