Question
The rectangular coil shown in Figure 28-61 has 80 turns, is \(25 \mathrm{~cm}\) wide, is \(30 \mathrm{~cm}\) long, and is located in a magnetic field of \(0.14 \mathrm{~T}\) directed out of the page, as shown. Only half of the coil is in the region of the magnetic field. The resistance of the coil is \(24 \Omega\). Find the magnitude and the direction of the induced current if the coil is moving with a velocity of \(2.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) (a) to the right, (b) up the page, (c) to the left, and (d) down the page.
Solution
The first step in solving 28 problem number 78 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: The rectangular coil shown in Figure 28-61 has 80 turns, is \(25 \mathrm{~cm}\) wide, is \(30 \mathrm{~cm}\) long, and is located in a magnetic field of \(0.14 \mathrm{~T}\) directed out of the page, as shown. Only half of the coil is in the region of the magnetic field. The resistance of the coil is \(24 \Omega\). Find the magnitude and the direction of the induced current if the coil is moving with a velocity of \(2.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) (a) to the right, (b) up the page, (c) to the left, and (d) down the page.
From the textbook chapter MAGNETIC INDUCTION you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
