14. a. State Lenz’s Law. 2
b.A metallic rod held horizontally along east-west direction, is allowed to fall under gravity.
Will there be an emf induced at its ends? Justify your answer.
Answer:
Lenz’s law states that “the polarity of induced emf is such that it tends to produce a current,
which oppose the change in magnetic flux that induced it”.
REVISION EXAM- 1 Page 3
b. Yes there will be an emf induced as the horizontal component of field of earth, velocity of
the motion of the rod and the length of the rod are all perpendicular to each other.
The magnetic flux due to vertical component of Earth’s magnetic field keeps on changing as
the metallic rod falls down.
SECTION C
15. Q-1. 3
Two identical loops, one of copper and the other of aluminium, are rotated with the same
angular speed in the same magnetic field. Compare
(i) the induced emf and
(ii) the current produced in the two coils. Justify your answer.(All India 2010)
Answer:
(i) Induced emf in a coil is ε = NBAω sin ωt
As the angular speed is same, induced emf will also be same in both the loops.
(ii) Current induced in a loop is I=εR=εAρl
As the resistivity of copper is lesser, more amount of current is induced in it.
Q-2.
A rectangular loop and a circular loop are moving out of a uniform magnetic field to a field-
free region with a constant velocity ‘v’ as shown in the figure. Explain in which loop do you
expect the induced emf to be constant during the passage out of the field region. The
magnetic field is normal to the loops. (All India 2010)

Answer:
In case of rectangular loop, induced emf will be constant. It is because rate of change of the
area of rectangular loop is uniform whereas that of a circular loop is not constant.
(OR)
Starting from the expression for the energy w = (1/2)LI2, stored in a solenoid of self-inductance

Hence show that the energy density is given by B2/2µ0.

SECTION D
18. Case Study Question : 4
AC generator is a machine that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. The AC
Generator’s input supply is mechanical energy supplied by steam turbines,
gas turbines and
combustion engines. The output is alternating electrical power in the form of alternating voltage
and current.
AC generators work on the principle of Faraday’s law of electromagnetic induction, which
states that electromotive force – EMF or voltage – is generated in a current-carrying conductor
that cuts a uniform magnetic field. This can either be achieved by rotating a conducting coil in a
static magnetic field or rotating the magnetic field containing the stationary conductor. The
preferred arrangement is to keep the coil stationary because it is easier to draw induced
alternating current from a stationary armature coil than from a rotating coil.
The generated EMF depends on the number of armature coil turns, magnetic field
strength, and the speed of the rotating field.
Questions:
1. Show graphically how an alternating emf is generated by a loop of wire rotating in a magnetic field.
2. What is the source of energy generation in this device?
3. Can the current produced by an ac generator be measured with a moving coil galvanometer?
ANSWERS: 2+1+2
1.

2. The source of energy generation is the mechanical energy of rotation of armature coil.
3.Current produced by an ac generator cannot be measured by moving coil ammeter;
because the average value of ac over full cycle is zero.

c. A current passing through a coil of self inductance of 2mH changes at the rate of 20 mAs − 1.
Find the emf induced in the coil.
Answer: a
The self-inductance of a coil may be defined as the induced emf set up in the coil due to a unit
rate of change of current through it.
Let I be the current through the inductor L at any instant t
The current rises at the rate dl/dt, so the induced

a. Define mutual inductance between two long coaxial solenoids. Find out the expression for
the mutual inductance of inner solenoid of length l having the radius r1 and the number of
turns n1 per unit length due to the second outer solenoid of same length and n2 number of
turns per unit length.
b. An air core solenoid has 1000 turns and is one metre long. Its cross-sectional area is 10 c m2 .
Calculate Its self inductance.
Answer:a
Mutual induction is the phenomenon of inducing emf in a coil due to the rate of change of
current in a nearby coil.
When a current I2 is set up through S2 (outer solenoid), it in turn sets up a magnetic flux
through S1. Let us denote it by ϕ 1, The corresponding flux linkage with solenoid S1 is,

(Here N2 is total no. of turns with S2)
M21 is referred to as coefficient of mutual inductance of solenoid S2 with respect to solenoid
S1. Thus, flux linkage with solenoid S2 is

Using equations (2) and (3), we get

M12 = M21 = M

20. a) Explain briefly, with the help of a labeled diagram, the basic principle of the working of an 5
a.c. generator.
b) In an a.c. generator, coil of N turns and area A is rotated at v revolutions per second in a
uniform magnetic field B. Write the expression for the emf produced.
( c) A 100-turn coil of area 0.1 m2 rotates at half a revolution per second. It is placed in a
magnetic field 0.01 T perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the coil. Calculate the maximum
voltage generated in the coil.
Answer:
(a) Principle of A.C. generator : The working of an a.c. generator is based on the principle of
electromagnetic induction. When a closed coil is rotated in a uniform magnetic field with its
axis perpendicular to the magnetic field, the magnetic flux linked with the coil changes and an
induced emf and hence a current is set up in it.
(b) Let N = number of turns in the coil
A = Area of face of each turn
B = magnitude of the magnetic field
θ = angle which normal to the coil makes with field B at any instant
ω = the angular velocity with which coil rotates

The magnetic flux linked with the coil at any instant f will be,
ϕ = NAB cos θ = NAB cos ωt
By Faraday’s flux rule, the induced emf is given by,

When a load of resistance R is connected across the terminals, a current I flows in the external
circuit.

(OR)
Question: a
How does the mutual inductance of a pair of coils change when
(i) distance between the coils is increased and
(ii) number of turns in the coils is increased
Answer:
(i) Mutual inductance decreases’, because flux linked with the secondary coil decreases.
(ii) M=μ0n1n2Al, so when n1 and n2 increase, mutual inductance (M) increases.
Question:b
(i) When primary coil P is moved towards secondary coil S (as shown in the figure) the
galvanometer shows momentary deflection. What can be done to have larger deflection in the
galvanometer with the same battery?

REVISION EXAM- 1 Page 9

(ii) State the related law.
Answer:
(i) To have larger deflection in the galvanometer with the same battery, coil P has to be moved
faster towards S so that rate of change of magnetic flux is more.
(ii) The related law governing this phenomenon is Faraday’s second law of electromagnetic
induction which states that induced emf is set up in a circuit when magnetic flux linked with it
changes. The magnitude of induced emf is proportional to the rate of change of magnetic flux.
Question: c
What is the direction of induced currents in metal rings 1 and 2 when current I in the wire is
increasing steadily?

Answer:
The direction of induced current is clockwise in metal ring ‘1’ and anti-clockwise in metal ring
‘2’.
