A square loop (side aa) rotates in a uniform magnetic field BB perpendicular to the rotation axis. What is the maximum induced EMF (e_{\text\max}) and the first angle θ\theta (between magnetic field BB and the loop normal) where it occurs?

Options

  1. ABa2ωBa^2\omega; \theta = 90^{}^{\circ}
  2. BBa2ω2Ba^2\omega^2; \theta = 0^{}^{\circ}
  3. C12Ba2ω\dfrac{1}{2}Ba^2\omega; \theta = 270^{}^{\circ}
  4. DBaωBa\omega; \theta = 180^{}^{\circ}

Correct answer

A. Ba2ωBa^2\omega; \theta = 90^{}^{\circ}

Step-by-step solution

The magnetic flux through the loop at any instant is given by Φ=B⃗⋅A⃗=BAcos⁡θ\Phi = \vec{B} \cdot \vec{A} = B A \cos\theta, where θ\theta is the angle between the magnetic field and the normal to the loop area.

Since the loop rotates with an angular velocity ω\omega, we have θ=ωt\theta = \omega t.

The area of the square loop is A=a2A = a^2.

The induced EMF is given by Faraday's law of induction:

e=−dΦdt=−ddt(Ba2cos⁡θ)=Ba2ωsin⁡θe = -\dfrac{d\Phi}{dt} = -\dfrac{d}{dt}(B a^2 \cos\theta) = B a^2 \omega \sin\theta

The maximum induced EMF occurs when sin⁡θ=1\sin\theta = 1.

The first angle where this occurs is \theta = 90^{}^{\circ}.

The maximum induced EMF is e_{\text\max} = B a^2 \omega.

Answer: Ba2ωBa^2\omega; \theta = 90^{}^{\circ}
