A big circular coil of 1000 turns and average radius 10 m is rotating about its horizontal diameter at 2 rad s-1. If the vertical component of earth's magnetic field at that place is 2 10-5 T and electrical resistance of the coil is 12.56 , then the maximum induced current in the coil will be
- 0.25 A
- 1.5 A
- 1 A
- 2 A
Answer
(3) 1 A
Solution
For a coil rotating about a horizontal diameter, the flux is due to the vertical component BV:
= NBVA
= 1000 2 10-5 (10)2 2
= 4 = 12.56 V
I = R = 12.5612.56 = 1 A
